Right, I need to explain this a little better. Because in a way,
seeking is less jerky now.

I'm seeking continuously by holding down f or <right>. Progress moves
along, but sometimes it jumps back. That is, the visual feedback from
the progress bar (or indicator bar) jerks back one (?) step. This is
while seeking forwards. Backwards seeking does not have the visual
problem, but I think the "jerk" is still there.

It is not a problem with input values, because your patch did nothing
to fix this problem and input is fine. The mpg321 program segfaults
when I seek backwards by holding down a key. It usually crashes after
a little while, not immediately. I'm using mpg321 version 0.2.10, by
the way.
