[Fixed]MP4 not playing

I have a number of .m2ts file which I am recoding to .mp4 using Nero Recode
Some of the converted .mp4 files are no longer working on UMS with an error showing on the PS3.
I am using the latest version of UMS.
The files play with varying success using Mencoder (sometimes stop after a minute)
But will not play with FFMPeg or TSMuxer
Note it only affects some of the videos.
Also, the files all play OK

Note the files play with no issues if you go through Transcode and process using 'no encoding'.

Might be an issue with your nero recode:

Could it be because its Windows 2003 32-bit? And be hitting the 4gb memory limit and the mov index atoms are at the end of the file? is qt_faststart used here?
(shooting in the dark here..)
