[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] lavf/http: handle case where the server returns a redirect during a seek

[Rodger Combs]

txoffer (e.g. http://tori.aoi-chan.com/ ) redirects to the same URI on your
first request, and serves the actual file on the second. It's stupid, but AFAIK
technically compliant. We'd previously see the server not handing back a Range
header and return an error; now, instead, we see that there's a redirect and
keep track of the offset we want while trying again at the new URL.
