-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
 I have a normal seek which seeks to a timestamp (not using
 AVSEEK_FLAG_ANY) and does some additional checking and works for all files
 tested.

 I specialize a seek back to the start of the file as this should not
 require as much checking. In this case I use AVSEEK_FLAG_ANY as it's
 essentially a 'don't care' and just get me back to the start of the file.

 This has always worked, but using AVSEEK_FLAG_ANY fails to seek with the
 attached avseek_flag_any_fails.mp4 file. The return value from
 avformat_seek_file is zero but really it hasn't done anything.

 The other files I have including all other mp4 files work fine. If I don't
 use AVSEEK_FLAG_ANY then I have to deal with files that may not have a
 first keyframe and the seek will fail on those files.

 Because of this file I am back to doing extra checking to make sure I can
 seek back to start but should not have to.

 Can't point you to a failing case with any of the common tools because I
 don't think any of them use AVSEEK_FLAG_ANY.

 Here's the stats on my build:
