I'm making DVR application and I'd like to use h-264 codec, but got following problem.


While f4v file is recording, client application (for example Adobe DVR Sample Application player) cannot seek inside the video.
It starts playing sought part of the video and stops in few seconds.

When recording process finishes the seek works correctly in the recorded  file.

The process described above works fine when I use vp6 codec.

im using FMLE 3.1 and FMIS 3.5.3

    Hi Guro,

    Can you please tell me if you are trying to seek to the end of the file or something? When you seek to 'x' position what is the length of the DVR at that point of time? Also can you share the audio codec, bitrate, frame size that you are using in the FMLE settings?

    Regards,

    for example file size is 2000 seconds and growing (file is recording)

    when i am trying to seek lets say at 100 seconds video is playing for like 2 seconds and stopping, then after little time it starts playing again without problem,

    if i'm trying to seek to 1700-1800 seconds somewhere near and of file, same happens video is playing for 2 seconds but stop time is increased much more.

    as i see it depends on file size, when file is bigger stop time increases.

    this problem not appears when i stop recording.

    bitrate 1024kpbs, 25fps, tried almost all settings from FMLE
    Audio codec is mp3
