Update image when "set time" in pause, like other players

[cbouleau]

Hello,

I am building a video player using libvlc.
I am looking for a way to display the image corresponding to a specific time "t", in pause mode, when the player is already in pause mode and a "set time to t" in asked (by the user of my player).

In other words, the sequence would be :

play // libvlc_playlist_play
...
pause // libvlc_playlist_pause

move to a specific time // libvlc_input_set_time
==> The image corresponding to this specific time is displayed.
The player stays in "pause" mode.

move to a another specific time // libvlc_input_set_time
==> The image corresponding to this other specific time is displayed
The player stays in "pause" mode.

The current behaviour of libvlc (and VLC media player 0.8.6c, unlike other players) is to not update the image in pause mode even if the read position is changed.

Thank you in advance for any help,

Chris. B
