Fast-forward and rewind in the browser

Hello,

Until now, we've been using the HLS endpoint to provide streaming to our end-users in our custom web application.
We would now like to provide fast forward and rewind features in the same web application.

For the fast forward feature, both RTSP and WebRTC (beta) endpoints support the speed parameter.
So it would be a case of RTSP+gstreamer to HLS, or directly WebRTC with modern browser support. Can you think of another alternative?

For the rewind feature, we don't really have any solid idea. How does it work in your desktop client? What do you recommend in a browser environment?

Cheers,
Mat

  I captured the network traffic from NX Witness desktop client to the NX Witness server.
  I noticed the RTSP server supports the "Scale" head with negative values.
  So we'll probably use this in a gstreamer pipeline.
