bidirectional dose not mean it will be sparse or dense mode.
if you want sparse or dense then you need simply to do ip pim sparse-dense
mode this command under the interface will insure you will work spars and if
there is no RP or you lost the connection to the RP then you will work
dense.
the bidirectional is as I said before only for sparse mode. Bidir-PIM is
designed to be used for many-to-many applications within individual PIM
domains
