Hello,
I noticed the openRTSP testprog had support for absolute seek start time
(-U option, "Range" header) but not for the absolute seek end time, but
support for the end time was present in the rest of the code.
I needed this for a small project I'm working on so I created this very
minor patch against playCommon.cpp version 2014.01.13 which adds support
for the absolute seek end time as well.
Thought I'd share it as it may be useful for someone.
Remarks:
- I got the source from the debian package currently available in
jessie, not sure if this is the most recent?
- I used command line argument -E since it seemed to still be free, not
sure if this is ok?
- I'm no c++ expert so code is provided without warranty, but changes
are minor so I guess it should be ok.
Regards,
Hans
