Mapping of DEL (7F) is incorrect? #27

Open JLBirch opened 5 years ago

JLBirch commented 5 years ago

In current draft the 7F character is mapped to U+2588. This Unicode code point is NOT the musical note as the accompanying prose suggests....

0x7f U+2588

Should this mapping instead be to U+266A

Discussed briefly in today's TTWG call. General view was this may be a bug but making a minor change alone is probably not worthwhile given that the document has much bigger changes likely needed given changes to WebVTT since it was last published.

In other words, thanks for raising this @JLBirch but don't expect a fix any time soon.
