If you're receiving over multicast then cURL is not nvolved with the
RTP datastream. You either have a problem in the server or in your
application.

You'll need to make sure that you have set the IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP for
the correct multicast group on the right interface. Also, make sure
that the multicast packets are actually reaching your destination!
Many consumer routers will drop multicast packets by default.
