Hi Davide,
*You didn't mention if the p650 is on the same "network", no routers in between that would take a TTL value? (mcast_ttl option if needed) *You could always sniff the packets on the network to ensure you are casting data from that machine to the multicast channel. AND the channel listening is the same channel you are sending on.
