Thanks for replies rboy1. I am on the latest version 2.3.15 beta. I tried
ffmpeg-ext=.mp4 and ffmpeg-remuxto=.mkv
ffmpeg-ext=.ts and ffmpeg-remuxto=.mkv
But I still could not seek/skip on my LG Player (conversion log and profile at bottom)
If I run the outputted mkv file through mkvmergeGUI version 6.2 and 6.8 with the command option --clusters-in-meta-seek, I cannot seek/skip on my LG Player.
If I run the outputted mkv file through mkvmergeGUI version 3.4 (--clusters-in-meta-seek is enabled by default in this version) I can seek/skip on my LG Player.
I replaced the mcebuddy mkvmerge 6.2 version with 3.4 and it still did not work. When looking through the logs I see the error

2014-04-09T22:06:28 MCEBuddy.Transcode.RemuxExt --> Remuxing video using FFMpeg to .mkv
I am guessing it is failing because it is trying to pass the argument --clusters-in-meta-seek on version 3.4 which has this enabled by default and is causing a confliction.
Is there a way to edit config so the mkv remux process does not use the argument --clusters-in-meta-seek, then I can continue to use version 3.4 because I know it works manually? I am guessing that for some reason my LG Player does not like the latest versions of mkv merge. Do you have any ideas or suggestions?
Below is the mkv remux and profile part from the conversion log using mkvmerge 6.2. I grabbed these bits only as it was too many characters to insert the entire log.
