Many thanks - this looks very good!
Also the additional subchapters are nice ... ;)

But now the situation is at least as good as with MP3 (ID3): there is a 
somehow "official" proposal/standard 
(http://www.id3.org/id3v2-chapters-1.0), but no player supports it ...
We will try to approach developers and can now point them to this document!

Have a nice day!
