Optimised version reports wrong length

Hi,

My optimised versions of TV shows report that they are twice as long as the original show. Half the expected bitrate, twice the length.
I imagine the bitrate issue is a result of the length issue. When you play them, they play for the expected time of the original show, but the progress slider in the web player only goes up to half way.

I’m using Plex 1.4.0.3224 on a QNAP x64 NAS.
Show was ripped with Handbrake 0.10.5.0 as H.264 with an MP4 container.
Not seeing the same problems with original file - only the optimised version has the wrong length.

Repackaging the MP4 file with ffmpeg -c copy seems to have done the trick. Looks like it’s a Handbrake issue, as you said.
