Hi,

I am trying to stream video file using tcpserversink, when i try to do
seeking using gst_element_seek_simple, function is returning with TRUE
return value, but seeking is not happening.

Below is my sample code,

#include <stdio.h>
#include <gst/gst.h>
#include <gst/app/gstappsink.h>
#include <gst/app/gstappsrc.h>

void on_pad_added (GstElement* object,
		   GstPad* pad,
		   gpointer user_data)
{
	GstPad *sinkpad;
	GstElement *queue = (GstElement *) user_data;

	GstPadTemplate *template;
	GstCaps *new_pad_caps = NULL;
	GstStructure *new_pad_struct = NULL;
	const gchar *new_pad_type = NULL;

	template = gst_pad_get_pad_template(pad);

//	printf("template name: %s\n", GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_NAME_TEMPLATE(template));
	new_pad_caps = gst_pad_get_current_caps (pad);
	new_pad_struct = gst_caps_get_structure (new_pad_caps, 0);
	new_pad_type = gst_structure_get_name (new_pad_struct);

	printf("new pad type: %s\n", new_pad_type);


	if(g_str_has_prefix (new_pad_type, "video/x-raw")) {
		sinkpad = gst_element_get_static_pad (queue, "sink");
		gst_pad_link (pad, sinkpad);
		printf("video pad\n");
	}


//	gst_object_unref (sinkpad);

}

static GstElement *appsrc;

GstFlowReturn on_new_sample_from_sink (GstElement* object,
				       gpointer user_data)
{
	GstSample *sample;
	GstBuffer *buffer;
	GstCaps *caps;
        GstPad *pad;
        gchar *str;
        GstFlowReturn status;
	static int flag = 1;


	if(flag == 1) {
		g_print("new sample\n");
		pad = gst_element_get_static_pad(object,"sink");
		caps = gst_pad_get_current_caps(pad);
		str = gst_caps_to_string(caps);
		g_print("caps : %s\n",str);
		flag = 0;
	}

	sample = gst_app_sink_pull_sample(GST_APP_SINK(object));

	buffer = gst_sample_get_buffer(sample);

	status = gst_app_src_push_buffer(GST_APP_SRC(appsrc), buffer);
		
	return status;
}

void *seek_thread_func(void *ptr)
{
        GstElement *pipeline = (GstElement *)ptr;

	g_print("inside seek thread\n");
        sleep(10);

	gst_element_set_state(pipeline, GST_STATE_PAUSED);
        if(gst_element_seek_simple(pipeline, GST_FORMAT_TIME,
GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH, 240 * GST_SECOND) == TRUE)
                printf("seek 2:00 done\n");
        else
                printf("seek failure\n");

	gst_element_set_state(pipeline, GST_STATE_PLAYING);
}

static gboolean
bus_call (GstBus     *bus,
          GstMessage *msg,
          gpointer    data)
{
	GMainLoop *loop = (GMainLoop *) data;

	switch (GST_MESSAGE_TYPE (msg)) {

	case GST_MESSAGE_EOS:
		g_print ("End of stream\n");

	return TRUE;

}


Can somebody help me to resolve this issue?
