On the server, I’m getting the pipeline’s current clock time (the base time), sending that base time to the client, and then seeking to that point on the client. I’m confused as to what the base time of the client’s net clock should be after I’ve executed the seek operation.

see set_mediaI() in src/client/aur-client.c

Basically the client base time will be the server_base_time + position, 
where position is the position you have seeked to. Note that aurena uses 
shortcut. Ideally it should not to a blocking get_state() to sync with 
the state change, and it should query the position when the seek is 
complete in order to get a really trusted client base_time. The demuxer 
might not have been has precise as requested.
