First you export the RTP data from within Ethereal like this:
1.  Open Capture
2.  Click on Analyze->Statistics->RTP Streams->Show All
3.  Select the stream you want to export
4.  Click 'Save As'
5.  Then feed that file into rtpdump like the below example 'trace.rtp'.

Here is the command line:
rtpdump -F payload -f trace.rtp -o file.out

file.out will contain just the payload which can then be decoded.
