[MPlayer-users] slider doesn't match file seek position

current;y quicktime seeking is broken for files using edit lists.
it's something like playtime cutting.
teh file contains the raw video material and there is a cut list (edit list)
teling which parts and in which order what speed should be played back.
it was required to fix a-v sync and playback for some files, but it causes
some problems, especially the 'short play' bugs (isn't teh whole file played
back, as edit list only defines a shorter cut) and broken seeking for these
files.

i think i'll make editlist support disabled by default, it causes more
trouble than fix :(
