[streaming] Re: Playing MPEG-2 PS on Streaming UDP

[John Anderson]

No it's not wireless and I have no problem with getting all the packets on
my Windows XP PC, so it isn't a network issue.  Also the multicast on my
network is managed with IGMP.

I'll try getting the development code as suggested by Gildas.  I've been
looking at the 0.7.1 code and trying to see if I can tell what the problem
is, but my debugging skills with Linux and GDB are minimal.  I tried using
the 0.7.2 code but it won't make because the makefile resulting from
configure script has an error.
