I'm doing some experiments with read_seek2 implementation in mpegts, so 
here some thought regarding seeking (in general):

Although there are no unpaired fields in the video file, it can happen 
that generic seeking routine positions the stream to the second field of 
a video frame coded as two frames in mpeg ts format (field pictures). 
Reading frames (on format/parser level) from this position on might 
cause problems (both in old and new seeking routines), since you are 
starting with unpaired second field.

Just my 2c...
