Performance of seeking in playbin2

I've noticed, that seeking in playbin2 is very slow, either in Totem, or in my application.
Is there any way to improve it?

Or, will I get any benefit, if I'll try to create my own pipeline instead of playbin2?

That's hard to say without more information. Seeking performance seems
fine to me both in totem on the desktop and on embedded devices like the
N900.

- what kind of computer/platform is this on? (desktop? embedded device?)

- what type of file are you trying to seek in? (avi, mov, mpeg..)

- is the file you are seeking in local? (and a file:/// URI?)

- what demuxer is used? (GStreamer's? A third party demuxer?)

- what decoders are used? (GStreamer or third party?)

- what audio and video sinks are being used/configured?

- are you doing a FLUSH | KEY_UNIT seek?

Unlikely.

Oupssss, I am sorry, I was using a corrupted file.
Seeking on correct files is OK.
