What Problem Does This Solve?

YouTube videos can have chapters, it would be nice if these were visible in the Kodi player.

An example video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1Fo_M_tj6w

Thanks

There is no way, that I know of, for a video plugin to add chapter markers for a video stream.

It would be relatively simple if an EDL files could be loaded, but Kodi will not do this for an internet stream.

The only possible way that I can think to do something similar would be to create a custom video window that loads a window property as the info of a ranges control, with the plugin writing the chapter markers to the window property.

Not sure if that would even work, and don't have the time to try.
