Hi again. I tried to use Source Specific Multicast once more and now it seems 
to work. 
I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

Thank you for your prompt answer!
I only wonder why the vlc do not cause such a problem with two different 
multicast streams (different addresses .. same port number). I used the same OS 
(Ubuntu 7.10).
No merging effect!

Further more, I cannot use different port numbers because I  hardly have an 
influence on that (I'm only working on the receiver application).

That's your problem - or, more precisely, the problem with your OS. 
Some OS's (including some versions of Linux) have a bug whereby 
incoming packets addressed to different multicast addresses, but the 
same port number, are not distinguished.

The solution is simple: Use different port numbers, as well as 
different multicast addresses.
