After transcoding has begun Mezzmo has an estimated length so when the Bravia does the head request this is returned and it can show the duration. The best approach here would be to pre-transcode http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nscoding-Files when using subtitles.
Thanks Paul, that makes sense about the duration not being shown during the first time I stream the video. Unfortunately pretranscoding every file would defeat the purpose of having mezzmo. It would be easier to just transfer the to a usb and play them from there. The logs didn't point to any issues as to why the video gets stuck during the first couple of minutes?
