            Bug ID: 25733
           Summary: Add reference to external "Sourcing In-band Media
                    Resource Tracks from Media Containers into HTML" spec
           Product: HTML WG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: CR HTML5 spec
          Assignee: robin@w3.org

There has been discussion in bugs [1][2][3][4] about creating a specification
for sourcing  in-band tracks in media resources. This bug proposes the
following steps to effect this change.

1) A proposal was made to public-html-admin [5] as a first step in creating an
HTML WG Note based on “Sourcing In-band Media Resource Tracks” [6].

2) An informative reference to this WG Note, e.g. [INBANDTRACK] would be added
to the HTML 5.0 spec.

3) Language would be added to HTML 5 Sourcing in-band text tracks [7][8], e.g.
“The sourcing in-band tracks specification [INBANDTRACK] provides guidelines
for the creation of video, audio and text tracks and their attribute
values as mapped from in-band tracks in media resource types typically
supported by User Agents. Implementations are encouraged to include
guidelines in this specification for media resource types they support to
facilitate interoperability. The sourcing in-band tracks specification
[INBANDTRACK] is the authoritative reference for sourcing in-band track
guidelines. An implementation that supports a resource type listed in the
sourcing
specification must conform to the specification guidelines for that media
resource type.”

4) Existing text in [7][8] could be changed to refer to [INBANDTRACK]

5) The HTML5 AudioTrackList and VideoTrackList Objects sections [9][10] should
also refer to [INBANDTRACK] for setting audio/video id, kind, label and
language
