Hey,

thanks for testing these out. Perhaps we should make a wiki page to
track which players etc. can deal with Skeleton (ie. chopped streams)
properly, along the lines of:

http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/MIME-Migration

... which will of course involve documenting what needs to be done to
deal with them properly, which is probably atm only documented in the
annodex internet-drafts.

It's partly documented in:

http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/Ogg_Skeleton

ie. it's mostly a matter of players handling the presentation and base
times properly.
