Bug description:
  MPEG transport stream (MPEG-TS) is used for HDV and AVCHD camcorders
  and as such, Linux users need a way to easily play, edit and see
  thumbnails of these videos. Video editing on Linux can't get very far
  when the de facto standard for high-definition video isn't well-
  supported, especially as more and more cameras are HD out of the box,
  and the prices for such camcorders are falling.

  Most of the problem seems to be from the MPEG-TS demuxer in GStreamer
  [mpegtsdemux] which needs to be fixed or rewritten to support random
  access better, among other things.
