In Version 1.5 FFMpeg stops transcoding after 20 minutes!

I use Serviio with a DirecTV Genie, and in Version 1.5 FFMpeg stops transcoding after 20 minutes! I have been watching in task manager because every video I try to play stops at the 30 minute mark. I see that ffmpeg stops running after 20 minutes on a 2.5 hour movie, and then the videos won't play after the thirty minute mark. I tried to watch at least 5 movies and it did it every time! Finally I uninstalled 1.5, and reinstalled 1.4.1.2 and that works fine, like it always did. So I guess I will just never update. But I'm posting here so that Serviio knows there a problem! :|

Thanks, are there any errors from FFmpeg? What about using the latest FFmpeg build?

There are no FFmpeg errors reported, and I did try the latest FFmpeg build before I uninstalled Version 1.5. It didn't help. I guess I should have included that piece of info. I have a 3 month old Dell Inspiron 5748 running windows 8.1. I also tried disabling my anti virus and my running anti malware programs to see if they where interfering. So I'm perplexed. Is it most likely a problem with FFmpeg, or Serviio? I also should have said even though I tried to play five movies and it did the same thing every time two of the movies I watched at least five times each while trying various fixes. Very time consuming!

Do you have enough space on "serviio temporary" folder ?

Having similar issues, though mine is random rather than 20 but yes it has never gone above the 20 min mark.

I should have enough space, its using the windows temp drive and I have 154G left on my 500g hard drive. Same place Version 1.4 uses.
