I am really interested in purchasing the Mezzmo software, but it thinks some .m4v files are songs and won't play them as videos. I transfered my iTunes account, and some .m4v files play as videos. What am I doing wrong? I wanna stream The Walking Dead!

Unfortunately, the video file you mention has digital rights management (DRM). You can see this in the FFmpeg output (look for 'drms' & 'drmi'). This means Mezzmo cannot get details inside the video and cannot transcode the video to compatible formats for your devices. Also, many DLNA devices may not be able to play it due to the DRM.
