How to skip until first key frame without decoding

Hi, Mr.Nicolas.

Thank you for your information.
I did not notice this specification. So it's helpful for me.

I tried GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_AFTER and I noticed the following.

If I generate a movie by seeking with GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_AFTER and 
GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLASH, 
it will appear distorted green for the first few seconds when I play with 
gst-play.

If you know the reason, could you tell me it?

My purpose is that the beginning of the movie becomes a key frame.
So for the time being, I would like to select one of the following.

1. GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_AFTER without GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLASH
2. GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_BEFORE  with GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLASH
3. GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_NEAREST  with GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLASH

I think GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_BEFORE is also fine.
Because I confirmed that If I use GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_BEFORE and there is 
no previous key frame, it seeks to the next key frame.

Best regards,
Kamiya.
