[Live-devel] multicast streams using same port

[Ross Finlayson]

Yes, but I also recall someone reporting that they tried this, but it didn't work for them (on Linux); apparently when they did this, they stopped receiving packets at all.

But if people want to try this themselves, then they're welcome to.  They probably don't even need to modify the "groupsock" code; instead, they could call "bind()" on the multicast address in their application code, immediately after they've created a "Groupsock" object.
