No fast forward or backward in idx bug or online sound

When you open a video problem with the IDX Gnome-Mplayer can not speed up
or rewind the video.

This also occurs in audio online:

Limitation of mplayer I believe. If mplayer encountered a video with a broken 
IDX
then seeks do not work properly. Please report this issue to mplayer.

This feature is available in smplayer, then I think be available in Mplayer.

the -idx option break seeking in partially downloaded files as well. So using 
it or
the -forceidx option do have negative affects. You can try it by opening
gnome-mplayer, editing the preferences and choosing the mplayer tab and adding 
-idx
to the list of extra options.

With -idx and -forceidx not effect.

Oh, I looked at how gecko-mediaplayer is loading this site and it is loading it 
in
streaming mode. I disable seeking in streaming mode as it almost always causes
issues, if not with this site than with others.

Can you tell me how to activate the seeking?

It would require editing the gnome-mplayer code and you would need need to look 
at
the ff_callback and rew_callback functions in gui.c. I took a quick look at it 
and
didn't see why the options didn't work in this case, unless mplayer is ignoring 
the
commands because it is streaming an mmshttp:// url.

My work queue is pretty deep at the moment, so it would not be something I 
would be
able to get to right away even if it was a bug.
