1 All,

3 I'm trying to watch a multicast stream on my Gentoo box using VLC.
4 I've compiled VLC with the flags shown at the VLC website. However,
5 when I try to watch a stream a window the video never appears.

7 - I've enabled multicast in the Kernel; a wireshark capture indicates
8 an IGMP join request is being sent.
9 - I've added a route out of the appropriate ethernet interface
10 - I've forced IGMP v2 with no success
11
12 This works fine on Ubuntu and Fedora, so I'm unsure what I may be missing.

14 Thoughts?
