No, it does do the seek to the prior keyframe and then a decode of  
potentially ~1/2 sec. worth of frames.  Obviously, with rewind we have  
no choice since we can't decode backwards frame-by-frame.

It's pretty simple to make the change you propose.  You can either  
apply what I've given you and I'll send a separate patch to do that, or  
you can wait for me to send in the whole mess one more time.  I may get  
a chance to look at it tomorrow (Sunday); if not, it will have to wait  
until Tuesday.

BTW: what would you say to a patch that, when hdtvrecorder has no  
signal, generates & encodes a blue screen with text "No Signal" and  
sends that to the ringbuffer?  Might even be fancy and include the bad  
station's signal strength as reported by the card.  This would allow  
the user to exit in that situation w/o having to kill the frontend.
