But this effect doesn't happen when you seek in e.g. totem after five
seconds of playback. It could be a timestamping problem in rtpmp4pay, or
something strange about avidemux seeking in push mode. I don't know
enough about these elements to say. A basesink bug like this is very
unlikely. Perhaps someone else has an idea about what was the issue.
