I've seen similar problem on Unix box running VLC. It sends IGMP V3 messages and didn't revert to V2, couldn't get SAP announcement. Just wondering if anyone saw this?

Not personally. I've encountered some strange situations related to
IGMP myself. There appear to be issues with both some router and some
host implementations. And then there have been cases where the switch
for some reason didn't forward the IGMP messages.

I guess it could be useful to try to document such issues. But it would
be good to understand better what is going on. For instance, try to
check that the host indeed receives the IGMPv2 queries, and whether it
sends IGMPv2, IGMPv3 or no reports,
