4 years since this issue was first raised and still not implemented........ a part of the mp4 specification no, yet not implemented? am i missing something.
i use foobar2000 in wine to over come this, but hardly an ideal solution. VLC supports it, but none of the gstreamer based audio apps like banshee, etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gst-plugins-good0.10 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365530 Title: support for MP4 chapter tracks Status in Totem Movie Player: Invalid Status in “gst-plugins-good0.10” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: totem The MP4 container format supports a text:tx3g track containing an index to chapters or sections of the audio/video track(s). Podcasts, audiobooks, movies all use this to allow you to jump between sections of described content. It would be great if totem / gstreamer could support using these. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/chaptertracks.html see http://www.radio538.nl/clublife/podcast.xml for an example MP4 containing a text:tx3g chapter track.
