Comment(by taylor.ralph@…):

 rc57,

 Without a seektable AVI files don't have the capability to do frame
 accurate seeking. All seeks will just send you to the previous/next key
 frame and be stuck there until you seek enough times that you hit another
 keyframe.

 Current trunk will improve forward direction frame-by-frame seeking. When
 paused the first time you seek it will hit the keyframe and then
 subsequent forward frame seeks should work properly. I plan on further
 improvements for this.

 I have no idea if building an seek table for an AVI works properly or not
 since I've never tried. The best thing to do is remux these videos into
 MKV with Avidemux2. The MKV supports proper seeking without the need of a
 seek table.
