[MPlayer-users] playing, stopping, seeking

[Christian Ikenmeyer]

I start my mplayer playing an mpeg2 file without seeking to any position.
Then I stop it. Not pause it. I really shut it down.
And now I want to restart mplayer with seeking at the correct position.
-ss doesn't work, because one second i type in the command line is not one
second in the mpeg file. The difference between -ss 40 and -ss 41 is about
5 seconds. So i cannot just check the time it was running.
How can I seek to the position I was?
