yes, I knew that but VLC generates SDP files with brackets...anyway, 
I've solved this problem.

Does anyone know if this is a "bug" of the Window version (I have 0.86b) 
and it is going to be solved
or if it is a choice of the programmers?

Indeed, now I'm able to receive the stream on a multicast IPv4 local 
address (eg. 224.0.0.1) opening the same SDP file both on VLC-Linux that 
on Windows using QuickTime but not with VLC-Windows. In the latter case 
it works only with the the function 
sdp=rtsp://myLANaddress:8080/test.sdp but not opening directly the file.
Then, I continue having problems with IPv6...
