A pcap filter? You mean a capture file? The pcap/capture filter syntax does not provide a 'contains' keyword, so it's not possible. You can only use 'contains' in the display filter syntax, which is unique to wireshark (and tshark, etc.)

That's for strings and binary strings. The spaces in your filter are probably confusing the shell when you invoke wireshark/tshark from the command-line. Are you running on Unix? Use single quotes around your filter: tshark ............
