Hallo!

>>> Here's an example:
>>>   CHAPTER01=00:00:00.000
>>>   CHAPTER01NAME=Intro
>>>   CHAPTER02=00:02:30.000
>>>   CHAPTER02NAME=Baby prepares to rock
>>>   CHAPTER03=00:02:42.300
>>>   CHAPTER03NAME=Baby rocks the house
>>>   ...
>>>
>>> The same format is used as input by mkvmerge ('simple chapter format', see
>>> [3]) and by ogmmerge [4] (input for ogmmerge [5], output of dvdxchap [6]).
>>
>> OK, given/assuming this is already a reasonably widely deployed way of
>> doing it, I agree.

>> Anyone have any last comments before I add it?

Thanks for the comment - I am also looking forward to use WebVTT ;)

@Monty:
Do you need any further information on this?
IMHO hierarchical chapters would be a little bit more complex and not so 
straight forward ...

Have a nice day!
