I'm trying to stream audio/video (I'm really only interested in Audio) in a LAN.
I've followed tutorials in internet which I've found very informative like the ones from Tom Krcha and thought would solve my problem. But until now I've not been successful in receiving the stream.
This is the code I'm using, can someone please point me out what am I missing?

Thank you in forward.
I was pointed out by Tom Krcha that some networks block multicast. And it was in deed the case.
I got a fresh router to test the apps again and it all worked perfectly.
