[Live-devel] trickplay with MultiFileSources

[Patrick Fischer]

Thanks.

I have done some hacks but i have some problems with my hack.
If i understand the index file right the file will only contains 
framecount and byteoffset.

Frame -> Byte offset

So my first solution if the requested byte is higher then the filesize 
of the first ByteStreamMultiFileSource, i will take the next 
ByteStreamFileSource.

Regards
Patrick
