  GStreamer | gst-plugins-bad | Ver: git
           Summary: mpegpsdemux doesn't support seeking with GST_FORMAT_TIME
                    anymore
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-bad
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: robin at nibor.org
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: 2.25/2.26
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


It seems there has been a regression in mpegpsdemux in that it doesn't support
seeking with GST_FORMAT_TIME anymore. A query "gst_query_new_seeking
(GST_FORMAT_TIME)" returns 0 for "seekable". With GST_FORMAT_BYTES it returns 1
for the same file.

The same also occurs with matroskademux, so the cause might be in code that
both use. It doesn't occur with OGV and AVI files. I'm using the newest
gstreamer and gst-plugins-* from git.

Severity is set to "major" as the end result is that e.g. in Totem, all VOB,
MPEG and MKV files are no longer seekable.
