check the ttl of your multicast source , they usually default to TTL=1 so wont pass a router hop, also with nix boxes check once you start listening

Thnx to all for the responses. It was a router configuration.

Now, is there a way I can select which interface to use (eth0 or eth1)?

I tried using

  joinGroup('233.75.215.44', 'eth0')

but it raises an error   (DNS Lookup failed...)
