Waveform Seeker for Streaming

[MourningStar]

Because the thread was closed ('Resolved') I supplied a screen capture of a portion relative to this. I agree with Aminifu in that I too desire a 'fill'.

here I go again getting all twisted. The screen capture above was from a topic regarding a rare anomaly with non-stream type playback. Since the seeker does not support streaming, I should make clear that this topic is for the seeker to support it and perhaps the 'moving' fill can somehow get hooked to the elapsed time graphically. I know not if the current seeker can easily be enhanced and if not perhaps a new one created?
(I have updated the op with a, hopefully, more appropriate title)

The way the waveform seeker works currently makes it rely on the file conversion api which won't work with streams which is why it shows the empty waveform & doesn't do anything else.

So a different mechanism (or I just make the file conversion have a stream / current playing handling mode) would need to be employed for streams so there's none of the weird plug-in hooking / faking playback that the very early versions of the plug-in would use so it can instead just get the direct audio needed to then able to effectively run in a non-ending loop & then from that it'd have to be changed to render out some form of I suppose 'scrolling' audio view.

It's that last part I really don't know what would make the best sense to do to show what's going on.
