Playback of some mkv fails, e.g. after 5min on Samsung A.

Have played around with mkv playback, and most of the files plays okay for 4 to 15 min, but then suddenly breaks and tv starts to play the next video file.
1. It is always at the same time for a given file, e.g. the Pixar Short - Presto movie breaks after 4:48. - Same result after a reboot and setting 4CPU for trasncoding.
2. Have tested the file with VLC player and finds no defects at given time. "Don't know any other way to test the file, for this type of defect"

Running SerViiO 0.5.2 <-> Samsung A - LE55A966

Could you check video bitrate at 4:48 with this tool?

Hi
I have tried the tool and I have noticed this.
1. High peak in the beginning doesn't raise any problems.
2. Can't match the exact time - the tool claims video length is 7:34... but TV and VLC says 5:15??
3. If the timeline on VLC is correct, it looks like no peaks around error time, at least not as big as the one in the beginning.
4. I have tested another file that also fails, but this files never cros the 15000 kbps at the point of failure.

Note: I am running Win7 x64 - Serviio 0.5.2 <-> LE55A.
