[MPlayer-users] Seeking fails for FLV files when using `-novideo'

[Michael Witten]

Given an FLV file, `m.flv', seeking fails when running in `-novideo' mode:

  mplayer -novideo m.flv

Trying to seek with, say, the arrow keys causes the audio to be played
from the beginning of the stream instead (it starts over). Playing
`m.flv' without `-novideo' does *not* have this problem. Also,
converting to an MP4 container fixes the problem:

  ffmpeg -i m.flv -acodec copy -vcodec copy m.mp4

Sincerely,
Michael Witten
