MediaStream%20Recording%W3C%Spec

Hi,

I have an issue with current MediaStream Recording implementations and I
was wondering if this is because what I am encountering has not been
considered? It may be that this is something outside of the scope, but I
thought I should suggest anyway.

Currently in Firefox and Chrome, a blob converted into a playable element
(either on the page in a video element, or downloaded as a file) is not
seekable. There are some issues open about it:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=969290
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=262211

Looking through the spec I have not seen any explicit mention of what state
the resulting file should be in. However, I would argue that being able to
navigate through a video is an integral part of recording and not doing
this means that it is broken.

Thank you,

Matthew
