[mythtv-users] Can't play files from Gopro h264 encoded

Hi all
I'm having trouble playing files from my Gopro 4. The files play for
about 5 secs, and then freezes. After about 20 more secs it says
something about "... buffering takes too long". If I then try to play
the same file again, and I choose to play "from bookmark", the file
plays nicely so it seems it's only a problem when playing the file from
the beginning.
I also tried to re-encode with:
ffmpeg -i GOPR0067.MP4 -c:v libx264 -c:a copy test67.mp4
and that new file plays flawlessly. However, this is a time consuming
workaround.
I've noticed that the network usage on the mythfrontend goes up to 100%
when this problem occurs. Is myth trying to read the whole file or
something?
Any help appreciated! Logs etc below.
Kind regards
/Erik
I'm running separate FE and BE on two Ubuntu 12.04 machines. Myth
version v0.26.1-30-ge41b710.
ffmpeg on the troublesome file gives me:
ffmpeg -i GOPR0067.MP4
