[Mp4-tech] fast forward & backward in mpeg-4

[Bharat Soni]

Hi,
Just adding few things to what Daljit has said. If the sequence has I
frames that are far away from each other (for example 132 frames) in
that case showing only I frame may not be acceptable. So you may have
to show intermediate P frames as well.
This is some what expensive in terms of the memory requirements in
case of reverse playback as you have to decode and store few frames in
advance (which is not the case in only "I" frame decode).
Regards,
Bharat
