Is there a description of the overall format somewhere? If it's
basically splicing the playback together from multiple files then it
could be easy to add support using the same code as is used for Matroska
ordered chapters. I'd need some samples to test with though; I don't
currently have any such blu-ray files (and I assume files large enough
to test practical playlists would be pretty large).
