@ -16,13 +16,10 @@ current playback position. To seek relative to the current playback
position, one must query the position first and then perform an absolute
seek to the desired position.
Feedback of the seek operation can be immediately using the
`GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH` flag. With this flag, all pending data in the
pipeline is discarded and playback starts from the new position
immediately.
When the `FLUSH` flag is not set, the seek will be queued and executed as
soon as possible, which might be after all queues are emptied.
If a seek operation is requested using the `GST_SEEK_FLAG_FLUSH` flag, all
pending data in the pipeline is discarded and playback starts from the new
position immediately. If this flag is not set, the seek is queued to be
executed as soon as possible, which might be after all queues are emptied.
Seeking can be performed in different formats such as time, frames or
samples.
