Windows Media of some sort - what formats is seeking expected to work on while streaming?
comment:4 by , 19 years ago
Oh, you mean http versus mms, etc.? I have only tried with http streams, and have never seen seeking forward work.

Seeking works with this in Linux: mplayer http://movies.apple.com/movies/fox/xmenthelaststand/xmenthelaststand_h640w.mov
WarpVision doesn't even start playing that one...

well, at least it tries to start now unfortunaley my network speed to low to watch it

The MOV sample I listed does start now, but it doesn't seem to get very far. Small clips seem to handle seeking OK, but not larger ones (perhaps WV gives up if there isn't enough buffered data?).
There's lots of samples here: http://www.jhepple.com/support/sample_movies1.htm
The ones listed as 11MB will stop playing as soon as you try to seek.

looks like seek doesnt work on that samples server (see bug #74 too) mov from apple server make seeking
comment:11 by , 19 years ago
Seeking works fine for smaller files on that server (with MPlayer and WV, excluding bug 74). Playback/seek of the larger files doesn't work so well even in MPlayer, but I'm guessing that is due to server bandwidth limits.
So, if you want to limit the scope of this ticket to the X-Men mov sample, I guess that's fine. ;)
