If you tell me how to get IPTV 3.4beta I'll tell you how well multicast
works on my XP system:-)

IPTV 3.2 crashes with some MFC error for a variety of codecs.  It does work
correctly for MPEG-1/2.

I tried to get the beta from Cisco and they ignored my request.  This was
after opening a TAC case for IPTV viewer crashing under XP.
