Sorry :-)<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">As some people noted, it would be possible to implement the mechanism that Michael Chapman’s asking for (rewind/seek backwards) in the client - but it shouldn’t be necessary, because the RTSP protocol already has a mechanism for this - and, as Michael noted, RTSP is already used for ‘off line’ playback, so it makes sense to try to use the same RTSP client for both mechanisms.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So yes, it should be possible for me to update the “MPEG2TransportStreamIndexer” application to continually extend the index file if the underlying Transport Stream file keeps growing. (This will also require a small change to the RTSP server’s Transport Stream 'trick play' code to allow for the possibility of the index file growing after it was first read.)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I have only limited Internet access over the next few weeks, but I’ll see if I can make this change sometime before mid-December.
