@ -901,6 +901,29 @@ backup headers starting at offset 2^x; for each x players SHOULD end their
search at a particular offset when any startcode is found (including syncpoint)
Seeking without an index (non-normative):
-----------------------------------------
A. backward seeking
1. perform a binary search on the syncpoint timestamps finding the one
which is largest and <= the target timestamp
B. forward seeking
1a. perform a binary search on the syncpoint timestamps finding the one
which is smallest and >= the target timestamp
1b. perform a binary search on the syncpoint back pointers finding the
smallest one which has a back ptr >= the position of what was found in 1.
2. follow the back pointer to the correspoding syncpoint
Seeking with an index (non-normative):
--------------------------------------
The demuxer only has to find the appropriate keyframe in the index and
start demuxing from the previous syncpoint
Note, more complicated seeking methods exist which are capable of quickly
seeking to the optimal point in the presence of an index even if only a
subset of all streams are active but a muxer SHOULD place syncpoints,
and keyframes if it can affect the placement of keyframes so that simple
low complexity seeking works with fine granularity
