VLC/VLS don't support IGMPv3 yet. IGMPv3 support is included in Linux
2.4.22 (not in 2.4.21), Linux 2.6 and Windows XP (not Windows 2000). To
have the support in VLC, we would need to change the system call for
multicast and change the interface and command line to specify the
source IP address along with the multicast IP address.

No, we use PIM-SM, as PIM-SSM (Source Specific Multicast) only works
with IGMPv3.

Please, correct-me if i'm wrong.
