I suspect that you're hitting (or running close to hitting) an operating system limit for the number of possible open sockets (see also <http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#scalability>). You may wish to increase this limit, if you can. > 2. Is it possible to run two instances of Live555 Media Server > application in the same Server simultaneously? Yes, by having each instance use a different RTSP port number. > 3. Is it possible for us to make the Live555 Media Server to assign the > IP address of our wish.

The easiest way to ensure that one particular interface is chosen is to make that interface the one for which multicast routing is enabled - i.e., the interface that has a route for 224.0.0.0/4 Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc. http://www.live555.com/
