"correct" was probably the wrong word here. I have replaced it locally
by "a proper" instead of "the correct", although it feels unnecessary
in general. I might reword this.
The "current position" is, as you described, the position ffserver has
progressed to with reading the input since starting the program +
configurable buffering (so client's don't "stutter" during playback).
I will try to make that a bit clearer.
