It should support seeking (either using the client buffer or abort the transcoding and start it again at the requested offset).\r\n\r\nI managed to use ffmpeg together with an Icecast server to live-transcode and stream a local file, and I can listen to it in a browser using `<audio>`, but it doesn't allow seeking and it stops after the source is done.\r\n\r\nIf I understand HLS right, then it should allow seeking in the stream. I'm not sure if/how that works for live streams however (in VoD, all chunks are known in advance, but if I live-transcode they aren't). Would like to hear your thoughts"}}
