Hi,

> Any comments, does it work?

It doesn't. Test file: Band of Brothers, without -forceidx:

- Seeking forward works mostly, but there are points where it drops back
  to the start of the file (!).
- Seeking backwards works often, but there are points where it toggles
  between positions. Example: I'm at 2:50, seek -10, I get dropped to
  2:40, I seek -10 again, I get dropped to 2:50. Repeat.

With -forceidx:

- Seeking forward works mostly, but there are points (at 11:10) where it
  drops back to the start of the file (!) if I seek +10. Seeking +60 at
  this point works, though. Same at 19:21.
- Seeking backwards works perfectly.

As long as the forward seeking is not fixed I won't apply it. If you
have to rewrite whole parts of the damn demuxer.

If you want the complete file for testing just shout. But I guess this
should be reproducable with other files as well.
