As long as no machine make a IGMP join to the multicast, the traffic will
not be received by any computer on the LAN.<br>
Another alternative will be to use VLS (and not VLC) streaming multiple
unicast channels (as many as you have clients) with the same
content.<br><br>
Hope it helps<br><br>

Is it possible to have several VLC instances on the same machine getting
input from the same unicast stream?<br>
It seems only possible if I have a multicast input...<br><br>
The input is a stream generated by a "master" VLC on the same
machine of the client VLCs and I would like this<br>
"service" traffic remains local. But It seems that only one
client can get the input if it is unicast (pretty<br>
logical). When the master VLC generates a multicast transmissions it can
be used by all the the local client<br>
VLC but it is also broadcasted to the entire Lan overloading it.<br>
Is there any solution?<br><br>
Thanks<br>
