Welcome to the community!
Are the switches running the latest FW in which the JG524PE's latest is v2.6.0.48 (release notes here) and the GS105Ev2's latest is v1.6.0.11 (release notes here)?
Another thing you can try is to enable IGMP Snooping Status, Block Unknown MultiCast Address, and Validate IGMPv3 IP header which is located on System > Multicast (see page 51 of the user manual here) to see if that will resolve the issue.

Thanks for the reply.
They are both running the latest firmwares.
I have tried multiple settings all involving the IGMP Snooping Status, Blocking Unknown MultiCast Address and Validating IGMPv3 IP headers but I can't work out the full settings of them to make it work
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
