By this I presume you meant that you used the 
"testMPEG2TransportStreamTrickPlay" utility to generate Transport Stream files 
(corresponding to various fast-forward speeds of the original), and played 
these files locally using VLC.

The Transport Stream data in these files are exactly the same as the data that 
the "LIVE555 Media Server" streams when asked to 'fast-forward' at the same 
speed.  Therefore, the problem must be in either your STB clients, or the 
network.

I suspect that at least part of the problem is that the 'faster' streams are 
being sent at a higher bitrate (because they consist only of large 'key 
frames').  Network congestion and/or packet loss may be the cause of some of 
the problems that you're seeing with your network clients.
