 When ffmpeg finds a timestamp near the start of a file that is greater
 than the timestamp it finds near the end of a file during a seek it fails
 to perform the seek. But it doesn't _just_ fail to perform the seek it
 also leaves the file pointer at the end of the file so on our next read we
 encounter an EOF condition.

 I'm attaching a patch that handles this failure mode with rollback to the
 original read position, but ideally ffmpeg would handle this seek.
