I did some more digging and I might have found a problem. Plays fine with Nero Blu-ray player and Media player classic however when I open Media player classic and point it to the m2ts movie file and open it, it plays fine but when I go to properties to look at the file it locks up the player. When I open the movie file with Mediainfo it shows the DTS track bitrate as "open". Not sure if this is normal for a DTS track? Maybe the DTS track is causing the problem with certain software players? All of the software players on my PC default to DTS audio, bye the way.

Yea I don't know about that, the menu software we use we have to run a MUI Generator on all the assets before importing, if a file is "illegal" it will fail until we make it right, so obviously our DTS file was "legal" or it would not have authored, I have contacted my Menu Guy and hopefully at some point he can spend a little time with me today so we can discuss this, he is very busy but hopefully he will answer my email later today.

@dlbsyst, I just tried doing what you did with MPC and mine did not freeze, I loaded the m2ts and clicked properties and it still kept playing.
