[gst-devel] Seek operation

[Sumanth V]

Thanks for your reply..

   When i want to do PAUSE operation i send
gst_element_set_state (pipeline, GST_STATE_PAUSED)..

when i want to do FORWARD operation i send the following seek event.
gst_element_set_state (pipeline, GST_STATE_PLAYING);
 RetVal = gst_element_seek( pipeline,4.0, GST_FORMAT_TIME,
GST_SEEK_FLAG_NONE, GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE, 0, GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE, -1 );

forward operation dose happen but it takes some time( after few seconds ).
when in FORWARD
i PAUSE the operation by gst_element_set_state (pipeline, GST_STATE_PAUSED).

now i want to resume the play in normal speed i do the following:-

gst_element_set_state (pipeline, GST_STATE_PLAYING);
RetVal = gst_element_seek( pipeline, 1.0,GST_FORMAT_TIME ,
GST_SEEK_FLAG_NONE,GST_SEEK_TYPE_CUR, 0, GST_SEEK_TYPE_NONE, -1 );

but still it dose not resume the play from position where i had PAUSEd in
FORWARD mode, but instead it resume the Play back from where i had pressed
PAUSE before performing FORWARD operation.

is it the right way of performing the seek operation? previously i used to
use the  GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH, now i have removed it, but still its playing
from the wrong offset.

Thanks.
