Vizio Smart TV

Other topic was locked without explanation but it was a necro so whatever.
Called Vizio and they said it was a limitation, that it couldn't stream mp4 files longer than 22 minutes or so (and other files have serious issues as well, it just can't process the large size or something). I'm thinking other TVs can and this is just a cheap TV that can't. I can play one from a usb drive just fine. It won't transcode the files either, and I don't know what is going on with that (negative buffer, etc.) but it might be the same thing.
Anyway, it isn't UMS. I can't get it to work for PMS or Serviio either, and many other people on other boards say the same thing
If anyone has a trick for streaming large files to Vizio, let me know. People can do this with other TVs.
