I am playing MP4 files. They will only play for just over an hour at which point it will no longer allow me to fast forward, rewind, or go to a different video file. I have to turn the power off and start over. Any suggestions?
Hello,
Can you please post the file mediainfo, to check all the codecs and the file information.
How do I find that info?
Is this it?

Hello,
I was testing out and find out that is you change the .M4V extension to .MOV it will work properly. Make a copy of the file and change the extension.
