Stream App for Stream: field parsing problem when binary src_content or dest_content fields are there

Dear Stream Experts,

I have a field parsing problem when there are binary(?) src_content or dest_content as following image.
There is src_content and dest_content in _raw, but those fields are not parsed correctly by default.
All fields which appear after the binary src_content or dest_content seem to have problems.

And the web UI is also broken. I selected "List" view but displayed like "Raw" view.

I'm using Splunk App for Stream 6.4.1 on Splunk 6.3.1.
Thank you in advance.

hi kwchang,

Seems like Splunk fails to parse this event, despite the event containing properly formatted JSON. I'd recommend opening a ticket in JIRA (SPL project)
