Comment (by qrtt1):

 Replying to [comment:2 Cigaes]:
 > Bogus server: the server pretends to support seeking, but in fact only
 skips the unwanted data at the rhythm it would have been sent; you would
 have to wait for 2 Go to have been skipped to look at the end of the file,
 and then probably watch it fail because it can not seek back to the
 beginning of the file.
 >
 > [http://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2012-May/124787.html] contains
 a patch that adds an option to disable seeking. You would use it like
 this: {{{http,+seek+0++://nextmedia...}}}.

 Thanks for your patch. It works well now.
