to reset the last_pts context of all streams, and to find
the appropriate
syncpoint when seeking. Demuxing can only begin at
syncpoints for proper
last_pts context across all streams, including after
seeking.
-back_ptr is explained in greater detail in the Seeking
section.
+A back_ptr points to a previous syncpoint in the file. The
area between
+the previous syncpoint and this one must contain a keyframe
for every
+stream, with a pts lower than or equal to the timestamp of
this syncpoint.
+This back_ptr is used for optimal seeking in files without
an index.
+For compression, the back_ptr is relative to this
syncpoint, and is
+divided by 16. The reason for this is that the minimum size
for a
+syncpoint is 16 bytes:
+8 startcode + 1 forward_ptr + 1 timestamp + 1 back_ptr + 4
checksum + 1 frame_code

closest syncpoint startcode found, and resume demuxing from
there. If
possible, before the linear search, rewind to the last
syncpoint seen, in
case a syncpoint was already skipped due to demuxing
damaged data.
