Hm, this is not required for my S2-6400.

I am pretty sure that something is wrong.
With the following (ugly) patch, the problem is gone:

All it does is executing the code in 'if (Initial...)' one more time,
after lastProgressUpdate has been set to 0.
Of course, it does not affect the 'jumping' progress bar. See below.

It does not make any difference, whether I use the keyboard or a real
remote control. (Well, I use the remote plugin, not LIRC.)

I don't care about I-frames. I use the cutter to produce small audio
or video clips. The current behavior of the progress bar is annoying,
when I play these clips. Anyway, I can easily revert the code to get
the old behavior.
