I was thinking about an fxd file like that to make "commercial skipping" possible with either Xine/Mplayer. Maybe we could hack up one of the free comskip programs to generate an fxd file like that. Mplayer/Xine then use that file as an index to the avi. Anything like this possible?

the idea itself is sound, if you could look at AVI files as a series of
chapters, it would be cool.

Take for instance an fxd file addition;

<video>
  <file id="f1">some.avi</file>
  <chapter id="1" start="2:30" end="7:40" />
  <chapter id="2" start="7:40" end="15:10" />
