Hi all,

I am using mplayer to play youtube videos on linux as the flash
performance is really really bad on Linux. One thing I miss is the
seeking feature for YouTube. I use mplayer to play hq/mp4 videos
through the script listed here:
http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=MPlayer_youtube_script

But when I try to seek, it gives me audio codec errors. I have tried
seeking in VLC and it seems to be able to do that, but I prefer
mplayer and would like to see if anybody on the mailing list has a
solution for this or if we can borrow the patch from VLC that fixed
this issue ...

Thanks,

Justin
