[streaming] Re: Streaming to Amino STB

[James Yates]

What Transport Stream bit rate are you using? The amino STBs have very
limited ram and are not particular quick at processing. I found that
there was an upper limit as to what bitrate an amino could take but I
can't remember what that is. 
have you tried transcoding to a file first and then streaming to the
Amino?
Which Amino are you using, 103?
Have to tried a unicast to the amino to see if this makes a difference.
Have you got it connected on a 10/100/1000Mb network. 10Mbps won't work,
amino supports 100Mbps network and could possibly have problems on
gigabit. 
What is the network configured to on the amino?
If multicasting, have you set a Gateway in the network configuration for
the Amino. I found that with my Amino 103 STBs, I could not multicast to
them properly without setting a gateway. Something relating to the IGMP
joins messages the amino has to send.
