Comment 6 for bug 508162

There is another mkv seeking fix in GStreamer Good Plug-ins 0.10.25. From the release notes:

Features of this release:

# seeking in matroska and webm files that don't have an index
# matroskademux: support seeking in local files even if they don't have an index
# 617368 : [matroska] Implement push-mode seeking and non-cue seeking

That last one has a GNOME bug number - the corresponding bug report is at:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617368

They don't seem to have included the bug reference (if there was one) for the local file case.

Please test with the Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" beta CD. After booting, and before testing, please use Synaptic Package Manager to upgrade Totem and the gstreamer packages, in particular the update of gstreamer0.10-plugins-good to 0.10.25-4ubuntu1
