IPTV multicast setup
Hi, I currently have an iptv multicast setup at home. I want to replace the isp supplied router with a freebsd box. I'm fine on the normal routing setup however I'm having difficulty finding uptodate info on howto setup a freebsd multicast router. Can anyone give me any pointers? I think they use igmpv3 if that helps.

You'll find in the ports/multimedia/vlc I need some sofware that allow resive multicast TV and cast them to STB and PC... The thing with IPTV is that the content is encrypted, and gets decrypted by the STB, which is controlled by your IPTV-provider. You cannot simply connect your FreeBSD box to your switch, receive multicast video and display it. I don't think you'll find open source software that does this... The other way around works fine, of course. vlc sends multicast and the STB displays it.

But I am sure that you'll not have many choices, if any. Content providers have very strict policies about the content they provide(movies). Having the data on a PC program(closed source of course) increases the possibility of data leaking and I guess they don't want to mess up with Paramount or whatever...
