h264 interlaced content shows doubled length (and consequently breaks
seeking) due to how the backend counts frames. It assumed one frame/slice
when in fact, with interlaced content, it's one field/slice thus doubling
all counts. A quick fix to ensure this is indeed the case is to halve all
the values in the seek table after the recording is finished.
