Play On Roku (15985) Seek Transport Command Not Working

Experimenting with the Play On Roku capabilities - I can start playback, pause, resume and stop using a combination of ecp commands like /input and /keypress.

To start playback I send the HTTP request: /input/15985?t=v&u={url}&videoname={name}&videoformat=mp4&k=(null) and the video starts playing - great!

Now I am trying to seek to a known time offset using the following transport command and nothing happens: /input/15985?id=1&type=transport&command=seek&direction=forward&duration=1775

What am I missing here?

Does channel ID 15985 not support transport commands?

      Unfortunately I have not. 

      Seems like Roku is not looking at these posts as it would be a simple fix/feature to add support for seeking.

      Let me know if you find a workaround.
