What do you mean by traffic reaching from destination network to the
source network? 
The PC and the 2 embedded LiveMedia boxes exist on a single network, i.e
the 10.0.10.x subnet.
One of the boxes is an RTSP Server, and the other a client. The client
is able to receive and decode the stream just fine.
Its just VLC on Windows XP that cannot seem to decode the stream. 
 
On Ethereal, I can see the flurry of multicast traffic coming from the
embedded box, which means it's visible on Windows
It just seems VLC cannot receive the stream. The same behavior is noted
in QuickTime
 
Note that if I change all the IP addresses (2 boxes + PC) to be on the
192.168.202.x subnet, VLC is able to decode it.
