I give this submission freely, and claim no ownership to its content.

My familiarity with the project is as follows (check one):

I have never used CCExtractor.
I have used CCExtractor just a couple of times.
I absolutely love CCExtractor, but have not contributed previously.
I am an active contributor to CCExtractor.

This is a simple change to allow for binding to source-specific multicast UDP feeds.

I've modified the GUI to allow for enough characters to bind to a SSM address, but it doesn't seem to work, even for simple UDP feeds. Can anyone confirm that the GUI works with UDP?

Also, I tried to validate that it works with Windows, but was unable. I see the packets in wireshark, but all of ccextractor, vlc, and mpv do not seem to get anything. If someone with more Windows-fu can validate that would be great.
