Fast-forward playback

[builderben]

I apologize for writing this in the "issues" list - it seems like the wrong place. I am about 15-minutes new to github, and can't seem to find anything labeled "discussion board" or any way to contact the developer directly with a question.

Anyhow - this plugin is pretty slick, and works well for the most part. I appreciate you taking the time to put it out there. I am having trouble, though, when I try to fast-forward or rewind a recording (playing on a Roku, streaming from a Mythbuntu 14.04 installation). There's no "preview" as I normally see with Plex videos, and when I play again, it takes a very long time (up to a minute) to re-spool and resume playing the content. Hence it is very hard to use unless watching a recording start to finish without skipping commercials. I think this is probably not an issue with the plugin itself, but wanted to check... my questions are:

1. Does this sound familiar, or is it a known/common problem?
2. Do things involving the in-video controls (ff, rw, play/pause, etc) actually go through the plugin, or is that all tossed over the wall to plex?

Just trying to get some idea where I should be looking - in my setup, the plugin python code, mythtv, plex, my network setup... there's lots of moving pieces.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure this is the HLS stream being encoded by the mythtv backend
server that is taking time.
