i have not read of few things wrong;
1) 1080p mpeg ts streams h264 encoded, , not mpeg2. never need mpeg 2 license them. mixing container formats , codecs.
2) there's no problem seeking in ts streams. lot of htdv recording of such streams , if play recorded files omxplayer(gui) seeking works charm.
