I cannot stream with that address too ( Win -> Linux)

The following works (i am restreaming something from DVBviewer):
send (Win): vlc -vvv http://127.0.0.1:7522/upnp/channelstream/0.ts
--ipv6 --sout udp:[ff02:120:2001:222::1111] --ttl 12
receive (Linux): vlc -vvv --ipv6 udp://@[FF02:120:2001:222::1111%eth0]

ff02:: seems to work, other multicast (ff97) gets transmitted too but
somehow VLC wouldnt bind to that port on the receiver (bug?)

Notice:
- no Interface "%<number>" on Windows when sending (see msinfo32 for
numbering) needed
- Interface "%<interfacename>" on Linux when sending required
- Interface when receiving required
- notice the "@" dunno what that is about but without its not working
- ttl might be important

PS: RTP works too

vlc -vvv http://192.168.1.2:7522/upnp/channelstream/0.ts --sout
'#rtp{mux=ts,dst=ff02::100%eth0,port=5004,sap,sap_ipv6,name="TestStream"}'

But dynamic service announcement (SAP/SDP) isn't shown in XBMC - only
if i use IPv4. I think I am missing something there
