[Live-devel] Seeking while streaming elementary mpeg-1 video ?

[Ritesh Mittal]

I get the point that implementation of two functions
"MPEG1or2VideoFileServerMediaSubsession" is needed. But the client software
themselves do not show the seeking instrument and do not send the "PLAY"
placket (according to RTSP). How did they get to know that for "elementary"
video mpeg-1 file they dont have to provide seek facility ???

Regards,
Ritesh Mittal
