I wrote myself a Qt based app that streams video from the internet. My app works perfectly fine under Ubuntu 20.04. Compiled using the exact same Qt SDK under Arch Linux, it also works, but there are noticeable delays when seeking in the video, and the video sometimes pauses entirely after seeking. Seeking again will make it play fine again.
Qt uses gstreamer as multimedia backend. I don't know much about gstreamer, but my guess (this is just a guess) is that there is a buffer and it is configured to be bigger by default under Arch than it is in Ubuntu, or some such. I have unfortunately been unable to find any configuration for gstreamer though, I tried /etc and dconf but to no avail, so I don't know how to compare the two configurations to find out what is causing the delays.
Any idea how to view and modify gstreamer configs?
