- * @file MP4/MOV container — ISO/IEC 14496-12.
- *
- * Parses moov for all track types in one walk:
- *  - tkhd: track_ID, flags track_enabled (0x000001), alternate_group, width/height
- *  - mdhd: timescale, language (packed 5-bit), version handling
- *  - hdlr: handler_type (vide/soun/text/sbtl/subt/subp/clcp)
- *  - elng: extendedLanguage BCP47 (when present, replaces mdhd language per spec)
- *  - stsd: sample entry format (avc1/hev1/mp4a/tx3g/wvtt/stpp)
- *  - stbl tables for subtitle cue ranges (stts/stsz/stsc/stco/co64) and video keyframes (stss/stts/ctts/elst)
- *
- * Keyframe reading is delegated to mp4.js. The subtitle sample table is read in
- * this module, because every rule in it is a statement of ISO/IEC 14496-12 about
- * this container. Track creation is centralised here so that track_enabled,
- * `elng` and alternate_group are handled once for every media type.

+ * media, in the MEDIA timescale and in composition time, while
+ * `segment_duration` is in the MOVIE timescale — two different units in one
+ * structure, which is why only the first is read here. `media_time = -1` is an

+ *
+ * Measured 2026-08-19: every LostFilm MP4 that carries a composition offset
+ * also carries an edit list cancelling it exactly, which is why decode times
+ * have been right on those files. `Firefly.S01E03` has the offset and NO edit
