	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.

	>> We recommend no more than 10Mb/s TS although you can push 12 on the 103 and a little more on the 110

	 
	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. 

	>> The STB supports both 10 and 100 HD/FD. Should be no problem on a Gigabit network providing your switch negotiates the correct speed

	
	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.

	>> All multicast traffic requires a gateway, it is a requirement for IGMP joins.
