[gst-devel] seeking ogg vorbis files over http

[George Schneeloch]

I wrote an application in Ruby which interfaces with gstreamer. I want to
get it to read music files from my web server on my local network. Seeking
works fine if I use neonhttpsrc, but only for mp3 files.
Pipeline.query_duration returns a 0 for duration for ogg files, and some
normal amount that changes a little for mp3 files.

When using the source gnomevfssrc, seeking doesn't work at all (over a web
server), but pipeline.query_duration returns a 0 for ogg files and some
normal amount for mp3 files. For local files of either type, seeking and
pipeline.query_duration work fine.

Should I submit a bug report, or is there a technical reason why ogg files
aren't seekable over the web?
