Hello, ad 2) bind the socket to a multicast address? How does that work? Do you use your own library or the live library? Where do I have to add this code fragment to the live library? (Groupsock.cpp or GroupsockHelper.cpp or ..) The only way for me to change the interface address, in order to receive an send packets, was to change the variable "SendingInterfaceAddr" and "ReceivingInterfaceAddr". Binding the socket to a multicast address lead to an expected result. I didn't receive any data over the socket. If I bound the socket to a specific network interface I could receive data packets, but had the merging problem.

We found two different solutions: 1) Kernel path for the udp driver (see attachment) 2) Do NOT bind with INADDR_ANY but with the multicast address: ... // Following DOES NOT work as expected: the socket will become // datagrams from ALL multicast addresses on the same port //saddr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY); // bind socket to any interface // Whereas following works: socket will only see datagrams // from 'multicast_addr' saddr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(multicast_addr); status = bind(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&saddr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)); ... Solution 1 implies to rewrite a new patch for every new kernel, but implies no modification to live555 Solution 2 can be used with any kernel, but needs to patch live555.
