Thanks tedebus. Yes that could be a clue.
The BDP-S370 is a unit purchased in Australia, so its probably a PAL device. Which means its probably the same as the UK device. Not sure if there is a difference between units for different countries. I did look over the code a little bit for MiniDLNA, and there is stuff there for PAL/NTSC around bits that deal with Sony BD players. Maybe that's related?
The fact remains though that the player will play the MP4 files via DLNA, but its like the ReadyDLNA service is not showing it files it thinks the player cannot play.

When using a Serviio V0.6.2 DLNA server (as a test), it was configured with transcoding turned OFF, to make sure it was sending only the standard mp4 to the BDP-S370.
The BDP-S370 is installed with the latest firmware M03.R.769. This problem with not showing the mp4 files existed before I upgraded the BDP-S370 firmware too.
