You need to set the multicast hop count as the default is 0 so the packets never leave the subnet. The number of hops you need to specify is dependent on your network configuration. use traceroot to find out how many hops you need from the furthest system. This is the TTL option which despite its name is really a hop count. The documentation on this appears to be wrong. It says that the ttl default is 127, but the code looks like it's actually 0.
