Comment (by warpme@…):

 jya: to reproduce problem You can enable FLV streaming in mythweb
 (settings/mythweb/videoplayback) and try to watch any recording on
 mythweb. If You have fast backend able to encode faster than realtime,
 flash player on Your web browser should be downloading already encoded
 stream in background. You will see this in flow player progress bar (white
 bar is watched, light grey is downloaded in advance; light grey progresses
 much faster). I'm using this frequently as my backend i.e. can encode
 audio with 44..48x of realtime - so 1h audio is encoded within minutes.
 Having recording downloaded in by player allows me to freely skip any
 adverts just minute after starting listeninig. ffmpeg commit mentioned in
 this ticked breaks this functionality. With this errant ffmpeg commit,
 flow player is NOT showing background downloaded  stream and not allows to
 freely walk on already downloaded content in flow player. In other words I
 can't skip adverts any more.
