[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 05/35] avdevice/dshow: set no-seek flags

[Valerii Zapodovnikov]

Actually I do not know how well will this work. Did you ever play any
stream? Even if you play it without forcing seeking you are allowed to
search forth due to how latency works. That problem with latency was only
fixed in CMAF. ONE must to accelerate decoding forward in time to get low
latency.

Now hardware devices are different. But still, what about pause? What about
seeking in the end which was BTW broken: see in

I mean, I agree this should be the default.
