I get this patch done. I tried the old patch for #7359 but as far as I
could tell it didn't completely solve the problem.

Regarding #6850, I realized my patch doesn't exactly fix it. In the
scenario described in the bug report, ffplay will use byte seek, so code
touched by my patch is not used then. I haven't yet been able to figure out
why the byte seek operation does not work as expected. However, my patch
will allow correct seek to the beginning of the file if ffplay is run with
byte seek disabled (-bytes 0 on the commandline)
