I'm reading raw rgb and uncompressed v210 in avi container. Here it 
finds the correct frames when setting min_ts ts and max_ts to the same 
value. With mov files avformat_seek_file() doesn't seem to work.

I Diddnt try with interframe coded material, but i guess you can only 
search for I-frames and you will need to decode the whole GOP to process 
get to the frames inbetween.
