Seeking time position based  or byte position based, I want this option, too.
Matroska demuxer has this option. (maybe)

I think so,too. But I don't have any know-how for this now.
I'm very very new of MPEG-TS files:-)

Can't you do seeking any of your ts files with this method?

This new Seek method may fail  if  PCR are not continuous.
If this method fails, playing position does not move at all.

I have tons of TS files, recorded by DVR, but not edited (CM cut or so).
I have also TS files with PCR wrap-around.
While I play these files, I have never failed at this time.
