REW doesn't work for mp4, avi and mkv files, FF is also not correct

[Former user]

When playing various media files from a NAS the REW does not work. The GUI displays the x2, x4, x8 symbol but the position in the files does not change. When the play button is press the media file resumes play a couple of seconds before when the REW was pressed.

I have tried the same thing with a file on a USB key plugged into the fron USB port, the behaviour is the same.

The FF function is also not correct, x2, x4, x8 ... is not as fast as it should be. The x128 should be moving through a file at approximately 2 minutes per a second, this is not occurring, it is moving through considerably slower.

This bug severally reduces the usefulness of the T3 as a media player.

Reproduction steps

Plug a mp4, avi or mkv file

Once you are a bit through the file attempt to rewind the file by pressing the REW button.

At FF x128 the progress through the file is approximate 2 - 4 seconds per second. Far slower than x128

The skip functions on the keypad do work, you can skip through the file.

I can't reproduce this.

Please supply more info and if possible URL to a sample clip or two.

If we can't reproduce this, I'll close this bug.

There are certain limitations in the decoder hardware that can not be worked around. Most of these issues are due to these limitations. In general navigating by skip is preferred to trick mode playback.
