VLC seems to be working: I'm using a VLC on system #1 to transmit an audio file on 239.255.12.42 and the multicast receive is working on a second system. rkulagow@gk4:~$ netstat -gn IPv6/IPv4 Group Memberships Interface RefCnt Group --------------- ------ --------------------- lo 1 224.0.0.1 eth0 1 239.255.12.42 eth0 1 224.0.0.251 eth0 1 224.0.0.1 lo 1 ff02::1 eth0 1 ff02::1:ffb3:364c eth0 1 ff02::1 wlan0 1 ff02::1 I can hear audio coming out of the speaker on the second system, and a wireshark capture shows packets are being transmitted on 239.255.12.42 So the multicast portion of the OS and the network infrastructure seem to be working OK. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
