But it's nice to see a real world use for IPv6 in consumer hardware (if you can call the reel boxes consumer hardware, it's probably only for a limited, but sophisticated market. Does it just use a fixed multicast-address to receive the stream and if yes, how is the communication to the tuner realized? Is this something reel-specific or could this be used to start a unified streaming-concept for vdr based on standards (and using IPv6 to avoid all that ugly IPv4 stuff...)
