A bit of additional info - I've done a little testing with some files I've recently had to pre-transcode. If I turn off transcoding in settings, and delete the pre-transcoded file, the video plays fine and rewind/fast-forward works. So it seems as if Mezzmo is transcoding the file when it doesn't need to.
I'd still like to know how to change the default from mpegts to mp4, but can someone please help me figure out why Mezzmo has decided to transcode this file? Thanks!
Edit: Just realised it may be because I have settings to enable English subtitles, and this may require transcoding on the Xbox - could that be it? If so, I'm back to - how do I force mp4 instead of mpegts?
Here's the ffmpeg output from when it transcodes the source video on the fly (with transcoding turned back on, but no pre-transcoded copy):
