Subject: Add a test program where looping in trick mode works seamlessly
X-Git-Url: https://git.ao2.it/experiments/gstreamer.git/commitdiff_plain/e1fd500bd67cf3b6136a3f5fb4ce6f6cd698f924?ds=inline

Add a test program where looping in trick mode works seamlessly

The secret here is to use SEGMENT seeks instead of normal seeks:
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer/html/gstreamer-GstEvent.html#GstSeekFlags

That has been tested with positive playback rates only.
