[streaming] AW: Re: AW: VOD/streaming at specific start time

[Dunsti]

i had the same problem with "rewinding".
i suggest, this is not a problem of vlc, but a problem from the video
source.
with an mpeg4 video in an MOV-container, "rewinding" should work.

regards dunsti

I have tried that already, and still faced trouble with "rewinding" the
stream.
Also, I'd rather like a complete server-side solution, as I'd prefer it is
not client specific. But thanks for the suggestion.

Actually I try to deliver one full-length news file in VOD, but at
diffferent start points corresponding to different stories in that news
file. I have a web page that present each story, and would like to link each
story. Also, as the segmentation may not be 100% accurate, I want to
preserve the suer the ability to rewind or go forward in the stream.
therefore, the best way would have to either being able to navigate through
chapters, but they don't seem to be transmitted with the stream, or using a
start time on the server side, then letting the user pilot the stream with
an RTSP client.
