[Python] Can't set seeker in GSTREAMER cv2, python

I want to skip n seconds forward and backward in gstreamer cv2 capture for recorded videos. But when I use cap_gstreamer.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_POS_FRAMES, fps*skip_second) it resets seeker to beginning of video. How can I solve it? I wrote an example, used recorded clock video.

import cv2

video_p = '/home/alperenlcr/Videos/clock.mp4'

cap_gstreamer = cv2.VideoCapture(video_p, cv2.CAP_GSTREAMER)
cap_ffmpeg = cv2.VideoCapture(video_p, cv2.CAP_FFMPEG)

fps = cap_gstreamer.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FPS)
skip_second = 100

im1 = cv2.resize(cap_gstreamer.read()[1], (960, 540))
im1_ffmpeg = cv2.resize(cap_ffmpeg.read()[1], (960, 540))

cap_gstreamer.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_POS_FRAMES, fps*skip_second)
cap_ffmpeg.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_POS_FRAMES, fps*skip_second)

im2 = cv2.resize(cap_gstreamer.read()[1], (960, 540))
im2_ffmpeg = cv2.resize(cap_ffmpeg.read()[1], (960, 540))

merge_gstreamer = cv2.hconcat([im1, im2])
merge_ffmpeg = cv2.hconcat([im1_ffmpeg, im2_ffmpeg])

cv2.imshow(str(skip_second) + ' gstreamer', merge_gstreamer)
cv2.imshow(str(skip_second) + ' ffmpeg', merge_ffmpeg)
cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

cap_gstreamer.release()
cap_ffmpeg.release()



Result:

My cv2 build is like:
