How to get VLC to stream out using a particular NIC

When there are more than one NICs on the system, how do I make VLC to stream out a UDP multicast stream through only one of the NICs ?
Thanks,
Al
Same here...

I'm currently looking for the same answer.
The --miface-addr <string> didn't work for me.
I have one nic on my laptop and a WLAN card. Each time I insert the WLAN card the multicast traffic goes via WLAN. Default gateway has been checked and put towards the Ethernet nic.

Network Interface address:
If you have several interfaces on your machine and use the multicast solution, you will probably have to indicate the IP address of your multicasting interface here.
?
command line OK, what about using the plugin

I can get the interface sorted out when I launch the VLC application from the command line and specify the --iface-addr.
Now I am using the Plugin through Firefox and/or IE, but I am running into the same problem.
Is there a way to specify the --iface-addr directive to be interpretted by the plugin and passed on? If so what would it look like?
thanks
