Description Wouter Paesen 2005-03-23 11:46:33 UTC 
Distribution/Version: Debian testing

When one sends a seek to the silence plugin, the seek always fails, while
actually the silence plugin should update it's internal timekeeping variables
and make the seek succeed

Comment 2 Ronald Bultje 2005-03-23 12:11:28 UTC 
I'm against this type of patches... We shouldn't artificially add seek support
to any stream-source plugin. They don't support a seek, period. Same for sine,
v4l, oss, alsa, ...

If you want updated timestamps, build a managing bin around it, like Cupid does,
and adapt timestamps in there. You almost certainly want timestamp changes for a
reason other than an actual seek, so seeking is not even a clean solution.

Edward applied this. My comments stand, though. This is a bad idea.
