Hi Ben,
Size shouldn't matter, as we've tested Mezzmo (and certain devices) with files up to 18 GBs and they work fine.
Please enable logging (see this thread: http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) then try playing one of those MP4s on one of the devices and once it fails, stop the server and send the logs to support. Also, please right-click on that file in Mezzmo and send the output of the "Get FFmpeg Information" command with your message.

What devices can play 4GB MP4 files and larger?
My PC can't? Xbox360? Samsung 46" HDTV?
Sending log + information to you shortly....thanks!

Most devices can play large files, so I suspect it's not the file size, but something else. Once we get the logs, someone will get back to you via e-mail.

Sure you don't have a problem because of a limitation with the files system.
Fat32 is limited to 4 GB files.

I can't change the FAT32 on my Xbox360, can I?
And I don't think my HDTV has anything to do with it either.

Wait, I just had an idea. Could it be that I need an x64 OS in order to play these MP4 files that are greater than 4GB in size?? I just remembered the PC that I'm testing Mezzmo on is Windows 7 32 bit - would switching to x64 make a difference?
Conceiva Staff
No, that will not be the reason. You can stream large files (> 4GB) with Mezzmo on either Win-32 or Win-64 systems. Have you sent in your logs and file information as yet? Once we get this, we will know more.Originally Posted by thescarletfire

Can anyone tell me how to create MP4 files, over 4GB, and have them able to be played to ANY device via Mezzmo? Blu-ray player, box, whatever. I don't care if I have to buy another player or whatever - I just don't understand why we're all forced to either a) compress Blu-rays to under 4GB if we want them streamable, or b) enable "Large File Size" in Handbrake, add 64bit headers so the video file isn't useless, and then still not be able to play that file anywhere...
Thank you!

The file system on your PC needs to be NTFS - right click on your hard disk in Windows Explorer and check the properties.
Also, the MPEG4 format itself may have limitations. Can you please post FFmpeg information on one of the files you are creating, so that I could see what they are technically, and I'll check the specs.
Certainly MKV and AVCHD with h264 video don't have any size restrictions (at least no restrictions that we found) and as I said earlier, we successfully stream files up to 18 GBs to devices.
It could also be a Handbrake issue - do you have any other encoders to try?
