            Bug ID: 28822
           Summary: [MSE] Spec is ambiguous as to event behavior of an
                    explicit MediaSource duration of +Infinity

"Update the media controller duration to new duration and run the
HTMLMediaElement duration change algorithm."

By my reading, the specs are currently ambiguous as to what happens when the
MediaSource.duration gets set to +Infinity. Do we fire durationchange or not?

mediasource-duration-boundaryconditions.html tests that we do, but the HTML5
spec uses +Infinity to denote "unknown duration", and we're only supposed to
fire durationchange when the duration changes "to a known value". Should
+Infinity have a different meaning when it comes from MediaSource?
