--- Comment #5 from Stefan Sauer (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev) <ensonic at sonicpulse.de> ---
1) I think extending the TOC to allow duration = GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE makes
sense.

2) I am not sure if we need to communicate the fact that the song loops. If you
run audiotestsrc it just beeps indefinitely and it could be considered that it
loops the waveform cycle.

3) I'd would use separate titles for each subsong. I think we still need to
update audio players to support those (e.g. totem only seems to support
chapters).

4) the app will have to do the looping

Regarding GStToc. I think we should add a section with recommendations. E.g.
document how to interpret a GstToc on videos and how to interpret it on music.
Also the GstTocEntryType need more guidance what they are.
