I have something which appears similar, but in detail something
slightly different is happening (or have I just delved further perhaps?).
 
 I'd seen something like this the other day
so I just tried again.  I have a single node machine and I just started
a VideoConsumer and a VideoProducer.  The producer is indeed
showing two windows of my video.  The consumer however is only
showing one and a copy of vic manually started on the correct
multicast address/port on a Sun workstation is only receiving
one video stream it seems.

I wondered if the VideoProducer is actually showing us both what its trying
to transmit and perhaps a copy of that coming back off
a loopback network interface or something??

My machine is running XP prof and the AG 2.1.x I downloaded last week.
My multicast will not be reaching thge big wide world though
as we have some problems :-( here with multicast connectivity at present.
