Still confusing.
What you designate as IPTV - in my reading this fancy A1+IPTV app (correct?) - is probably yet another application like for example YouTube - as such it's technically unrelated to the dedicated VLAN based ICMP Muticast (live) TV.
Or are you using an IPTV Box by (or for) implemented by your ISP, like Calix does for hundreds of IPTV providers, like your small Coop mentioned, and using an IPTV VLAN as designated by your ISP?
