Well,

It's hard to know if it's your fault, or liveMedia's (both are very 
reasonable), but a temporary solution would be to force liveMedia only 
to listen on your IP and not 0.0.0.0. To fix this, edit the file 
groupsock/GroupsockHelper.cpp.
Around line 34 you have definitions for what IP to listen on. INADDR_ANY 
is the default (0.0.0.0). Change INADDR_ANY to 1226549440 which is your 
server's IP number.
