Negative rate trick mode - how to avoid video sink buffering.

mahesh mane
Hi,

I am trying to play a MP4 file which is of 3 hours duration. When I do reverse seek in trick mode (-32x) at position 80 minutes, video sink keeps buffering till it reaches 0 minutes. After this reverse playback starts. Because of this buffering the system memory usage increases. After some time, the memory allocation fails. This is issue when we test on a hardware as the memory is limited.

Can anyone tell how to avoid the buffering of the video sink ? is there any parameter that needs to be send additionally in new segment or flush or another event so that rewind seek starts immediately with out buffering in video sink?

Thanks for you suggestion in advance,

Regards,
Mahesh.
