Hi Primoz, maybe the ReuseAddr property? This is my Implementation:
procedure TUDP.StartRx; begin Disconnect; pLocalIP:=trim(pLocalIP); if (pLocalIP<>'')and(pLocalPort>0) then begin fWS.Proto:='udp'; fWS.MultiThreaded:=pMultiThreaded; fWS.Addr:=pLocalIP; fWS.Port:=inttostr(pLocalPort); if fWS.Addr='' then fWS.Addr:='0.0.0.0'; if pMulticast then begin fWS.MultiCast:=true; fWS.ReuseAddr:=true; fWS.MultiCastAddrStr:=pPeerIP; end; fWS.Listen; fWS.SocketRcvBufSize:=fRXSize; if pMulticast then setsockopt(fWS.HSocket,IPPROTO_IP,IP_MULTICAST_TTL,@pMulticastTTL,sizeof(pMulticastTTL)); end else TLogger.Log('UDP socket start rx error LocalIP='+pLocalIP+' LocalPort='+inttostr(pLocalPort),lsError,true); end; Bye Emanuele Il 16/06/2011 12:29, Primoz Gabrijelcic ha scritto: > Hello, Everybody! > > I have some problems with multicasting implementation, most probably > caused by my insufficient understanding of the subject. > > I have multiple applications that can stream and listen on multicasted > traffic.
