Hi and thank you very much for your answer.

I'm sure that the multicast UDP address is 24.xxx.x.x :12345
I'm inside a very big LAN, so that IP isn't probably published on Internet.

I know that the stream is not MPEG/RTP, so I think is MPEG2TS/UDP.

I have done that but in the logs I get "input error: recv() (No error)" and
after few seconds "input error: recv() (Bad file descriptor)"

Perhaps I use a wrong setting.

Thanks Sabbia
