How to SEEK the Filestream

Hi Guys! I’m trying to control a video playback using the seek time pin in the FileStream (DX11.Texture Vlc)

the Position output is right, but the video is jumpy, sometime it goes well sometimes switch without interruption from a frame to the next. What I’m doing wrong?

FileStream.rar (6.8 MB)

i think the VLC video engine cannot seek like this… especially not if the codec has a small number if key frames. you could try a codec with progressive encoding and see whether it performs better.

I try also “no compression” codec, no better result…
so now I’m converting the video in a PNG sequence. But I’m still curious
