I will try this now as I will try to find something in the trace
messages.

The other Xorp users are in the same (university) network and have
the same multicast upstream. So this is not the problem. And where can I
see the range of a BSR? I only know that RPs have a range.

This is my BSR in "show pim bootstrap":

BSR             Pri LocalAddress    Pri State           Timeout SZTimeout
188.1.42.50       0 0.0.0.0           0 AcceptPreferred     118 1288

Thanks a lot,
