Currently, chunked content-encoding media content transfers are considered not to have a defined length and are treated as live videos (no seek available, the whole content is downloaded in a monolithic way). However, sometimes the web server specifies a content-length that, even if not mandatory, gives a hint about the total length. If that info was used, we could treat the download in a much more flexible way, downloading only the required pieces on demand, as the player needs them, and also enabling seek.
