The problem could also be that you have several network adapters in your 
laptop and the multicast route might not be set to the adapter you are 
trying to use.

You can use vlc's "iface-addr" config option (named "network interface 
address" in the preferences panel) to choose which interface should be used 
to connect to the multicast stream.
