Panasonic Viera G20 videos stuttering & not recognised

[ChrisOfTheOT]

I have the latest Mezzmo updated on our new WHS 2011 setup (4gb RAM). It links to the Xbox & Panansonic Viera TV happily enough but the videos run for between a second or two to a minute or so before freezing or stuttering along. (Some videos say they are not recognised, but not always, even if the preview window works okay.) The network is all wired gigabit from the server & BT Home Hub router to the Xbox & TV.

I've searched here and changed the ffmpeg to the 64bit version - which seemed to help a bit - but has not cured the problem.

FFmpeg details below of the last video I tried:

Any help is much appreicated.

Sorry, forgot to say that the device profiles are 'Xbox' & 'Panasonic (2011 models)' respectively, set to gigabit speed. I've also seen - and got plenty confused by - 'transcoding' and 'pre-transcoding'. I'm not clear on why the second may be preferable.
