Chris G Hi Chris, yes, it's a known issue and it is already fixed for the next version (1.0.7).
There were two causes in libVLC, depending on the recording:
- MPEG-TS (e.g. the "pass" profile): VLC's TS demuxer cannot start at a given time on a recording streamed over HTTP, so it simply played from the beginning. The next version starts TS recordings at a position instead.
- Matroska (mkv): Tvheadend writes the seek index only for video, and VLC's own mkv demuxer then reads from the start of the file. The next version plays mkv recordings with the FFmpeg demuxer, which seeks by the video index like Kodi does.
To make sure your case is one of these, could you tell me which recording profile you use (pass/TS or Matroska) and which version of the app you have?
