Before you can use streamdev's multicast server, you might need to patch VDR.
Binding an IGMP socket is a privileged operation, so you must start VDR as root.
If you pass the -u option to VDR, it will drop almost all priviledges before
streamdev is even loaded. Apply vdr-cap_net_raw.diff to keep VDR from dropping
the CAP_NET_RAW capability required to bind the IGMP socket. The patch is part
of streamdev's source distribution. Check the patches subdirectory. There's no
need to patch VDR if it is kept running as root (not recommended).
streamdev is even loaded. In VDR < 1.7.22 this prevented streamdev from binding
the socket. Apply either patch vdr-1.6.0-cap_net_raw.diff (VDR < 1.7.5) or
vdr-1.7.21-cap_net_raw.diff (VDR < 1.7.22) to keep VDR from dropping capability
