Description

The movie source does not seem to allow for accurate seeking since it locks to keyframes:

Generate sample with:

$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i "color=white,drawtext=fontfile=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf:x=20:y=50:fontsize=50:rate=25/1:timecode='00\\:00\\:00\\:00'" -t 30 out.mp4

Test with movie source:

$ ffplay -f lavfi 'movie=out.mp4:sp=15.0'

In this case the result is 5s off the desired seek point.
