Please try the following modification:

--- dvbapi.c    2002/04/21 11:55:48
+++ dvbapi.c    2002/05/03 15:59:32
@@ -279,8 +279,7 @@
 int cIndexFile::GetNextIFrame(int Index, bool Forward, uchar *FileNumber, int *FileOffset, int *Length, bool StayOffEnd)
 {
   if (index) {
-     if (Forward)
-        CatchUp();
+     CatchUp();
      int d = Forward ? 1 : -1;
      for (;;) {
          Index += d;

The line numbers may be off if you have applied any patches, but you should be
able to do this manually. Simply delete the line 'if (Forward)' in cIndexFile::GetNextIFrame()
of dvbapi.c.
