Description Tim-Philipp Müller 2006-05-18 11:40:49 UTC 
I think it would be nice to have a simplified version of the gst_element_seek() API that's a bit less confusing for beginners.

Patch attached, also points out some common pitfalls (for beginners) in the docs blurb.

I think you want the first seek type to be GST_SEEK_TYPE_SET. Otherwise, no problem (in gstutils.c).

Indeed (had that already fixed locally, forgot to update patch though).


Committed with GST_SEEK_TYPE_SET and additional typo fixes in the docs:
