Hello
Thank you for your answer.
I took a look of sources of MPlayer. I would like to ask you one more
question about non-interleaved files. I know it is 1%, but I have one :(
In seek.c file in function demux_seek(), section for avi files
is calculated variable video_chunk_pos and fields idx_pos_a, idx_pos_v and idx_pos
are set to its value (line 96), next is calculated variable audio_chunk_pos and
these fields are set to value of audio_chunk_pos (line 149).
Some lines down is calculated variable skip_video_frames with idx_pos
and video_chunk_pos.
It seems to work well if idx_pos_v is removed from line 149 and added condition
that skip_video_frames is calculated only when demuxer->type==DEMUXER_TYPE_AVI.
In idx_pos_v is position of package of video stream and there is no need
for skipping video frames in functions for non-interleaved files,
( demux_avi_fill_buffer_ni() and demux_avi_fill_buffer_nini())
and moving forward is then really fast.
What do you think about it ?

Thank you
