No, duration is constant for a file.

Correct, it is constant for a file. You can seek between 0 and the duration of
the file.

segment.stop is where the user wanted to stop playback, which can be different
than the duration of the file.

a file goes from 0 -> duration
playback goes from start to stop (with start and stop between 0 and duration)
