when joining a multicast stream, users can select the source they want to
receive the stream from

* Overview: for now when joining a multicast stream, users cannot select the
source they want to receive the stream from.


* Additional Information: The kernel configuration determines which IGMP
version to use. 

On linux you can select the minimum IGMP version to use.

On windows, you can only select the maximum IGMP version to use. IGMPv3 + SSM
is avaible from winXP_SP1. On winXP (don't know on vista and seven) when a
network interface sees a IGMPv1 or IGMPv2 it becomes impossible to send a
IGMPv3 packet without restarting the network interface
