Frame Step forward with Sync Renderer does not update position

[cajhin]

(Minor issue that few users will care about, workaround exists - please disregard if there is no trivial fix)

To Recreate (latest 2.3.7 or old v1.9, doesn't matter):

1. Set Options>Playback>Output = Sync Renderer
2. restart (looks like stop+play does not completely reset the renderer?)
3. play video to 00:10 then pause
4. frame step forward five seconds
5. play

Result:

1. time display stayed at 00:10
2. audio plays from 00:10 to 00:15 while the video is still
3. after five seconds at 00:15, normal play resumes

Workaround: After many framestep-forward, do one framestep-backward to sync time

Notes:

• framestep backwards updates the 'current position'
• other renderers update the position
• mpc-be behaves the same
• Sync renderer is cool, because it can usually framestep forward with 30fps (fluidly)

There is no real framestep backwards. It is in reality just an ordinary seek.

Sync Renderer is practically unmaintained. So issues are low priority. At quick glance I don't see any obvious differences in the code with regards to frame stepping when compared to EVR-CP.

Seems like the sync logic must not understand the skip properly.

Thanks for checking. I think this special edge case is not worth your time.
