Yes, this is already implemented (but doesn't work particularly well, 
because the resulting presentation timestamps (from the audio and 
video substreams) aren't always in sync).

For example, our "live555MediaServer" already supports seeking on 
MPEG Program Stream files.


>If yes, which class supports this?

MPEG1or2DemuxedServerMediaSubsession::seekStreamSource()

Note that - for a typical MPEG Program Stream that contains both an 
audio and video substream -  this function ends up getting called 
twice - once for each substream.
