It seems to me that the root of this problem is that XBMC does not know the length of the video. This seems to be causing it to ignore any request to fast forward and rewind.
It'd be useful to at least let the user rewind since XBMC knows how far it can go backward. I understand not allowing FF.
Note that both percentage based seeking and absolute seeking fail.

I have a Humax HDR that I have setup to stream recordings on uPnP. FF/RW/SKIP do not work because (as I understand it) the XBMC client is not getting the overall recording length from the Humax. However, VLC player is able to get this information when streaming, so I guess it's down to differences in how the programs are interogating the Humax. Am running two varients of XBMC, 11.0 Eden on Xubuntu & OpenElec on RPi.
