I have two Panasonic TC-L42E50 televisions and both wipe out the media server every time they are used to view xvid videos. The TV requires these to be transcoded and so Mezzmo does it's duty well. Too Well! When scrolling down the list of shows available, Mezzmo starts the preview of each and every one. It does not take long before FFmpeg.exe has multiple processes going and CPU usage is 99%. This crazy problem has taken me a long time to figure out. Originally I had no idea why I had some 25+ processes running. I have now documented this by playing around on the TV while watching the Mezzmo GUI. Most of the time I only have the service running and didn't know what TV was causing the problem. Well, now I know it was two.

I have turned off "Complete partially transcoded audio/video files in background." I have no idea what else I can try. Is there a setting that will prevent the preview from playing if the file needs to be transcoded?
