Here is another link where Ian mentions that the seek should be the exact
frame.

 This came up from 2 years ago, where I wanted to add an optional "strict"
parameter to the seek call, which would default to false. Exactly the same
as what Philip suggested. I'm all for it.

I think Chrome added frame accurate seeking in version 7.
