<p dir="ltr">One question I have (which is more an Android
question than a mobilemyth question) is whether it's possible to
seek forwards/backwards at all when watching a stream? Is it
possible on some Android video players, and if so which ones? Or
is it not possible to do this at all from a stream?</p>

Try diceplayer - I use this with cifs/upnp (twonky) with recordings
- uses hw decoding on a nexus 7, and allows forward, backward
skipping.<br>

Not only can skipping be an issue but for our use case of night time baby feedings pause becomes an important part. Some resume at the beginning, at the spot expected, or where the current transcode progress is. I'll try to put a chart together documenting all the "features" of each player so you can pick the ones that best fits your particular use case. I can say iOS (I am testing on and iPad 1) works exactly how you would expect it all to work.</div>
