    Hey folks, (this question isn't directed to eir staff as they are not supporting this) 
    If this is a wrong forum please forgive me I do apologise in advance :) 

    I need a help with what I think should be possible:

    I would like to open evision udp multicast stream on any other device that will accept that stream.  


    setup I am using: eircom F??? modem in bridge mode with edgerouter-x 

    I have igmp proxy setup so that I receive stream on set up box fine.
    Now, I would like to open VLC on my laptop and open udp stream / channel there. 
    igmproxy for laptop subnet is added and I can see igmp multicast flooding the subnet. 
    I open vlc and open up say udp://@239.192.3.171:1234 
    VLC will say that it has opened the stream successfully but no audio/video is present. 
    tcpdump show udp packets flowing in. 
    So, I do wonder if I need something specific to eir (codec, spoof set up box in vlc?) so that I could watch it on vlc? Final idea is to have it on iptv client that my smart tv has built in and getting rid of  hopefully unnecessary eir box.
