Could I build a tunnel > to that mrouter? I'm not very good at multicast routing, since I don't understand mrouted and the network setup that well. If there is a Cisco router between the two of you, you may be able to convince your network admins to switch on multicast on it, so it'll work without further modification. Otherwise you may have to build a tunnel. I would suggest consulting your network admins before building any tunnels, though.
