--- Comment #33 from Duncan Palmer <dpalmer at digisoft.tv> ---
We've just stumbled across this problem as well, when streaming over HLS. We
often experience variant switches at the start of playback, and therefore
seeking early in the piece is not terribly reliable, as the seek events often
get lost.

A question; if we implement a solution along the lines that Thiago has
described, does anyone know how decodebin2 will behave when it receives a
FLUSH_START event from the upstream element which has now received the SEEK
event? I think we would want it to destroy the new groups (which are not yet
linked downstream), and push the event into the old linked group (which is
linked downstream).
