Yes this works fine, vic-2.8 with the Meteor video capture card works
very well, receiving locally on FreeBSD, Sun Sparc and an old SGI.

The available color map in the other machines delivers fairly good color
rendition, the Matrox Millenium card in the machine running the vic
'transmitter' displays 24-bit quality.
Wonder if the encoder is able to transmit 24-bit color?

Going to look into this..

Now its time to look into the configuration of the FreeBSD router to allow
it to create a tunnel while routing multicast packets to the local net.
