[Media Overlays] TOC link => should start playback at referenced XHTML element, not top of page

[Daniel Weck]

Hi Marisa,

following our chat about this issue, I looked into the epub-testsuite EPUB #120, and I realised that the TOC links do not point directly to a MO-enabled XHTML element (i.e. with an explicitly-associated SMIL text@src, or even an ancestor seq@epub:textref). Instead, they reference an XHTML section not directly "indexed" by the SMIL, that wraps descendant MO-enabled XHTML elements.

This *does* make total sense from a user perspective: i.e. "play the first MO-enabled piece of text within this XHTML block", so I will indeed implement this behaviour.

Marisa, could you please confirm that I have addressed the issue correctly?

Thanks! Dan

Yep, this is a common scenario for MO - not every single element will be associated with SMIL. The reading systems have to search for the first available item within the current scope (page, section, whatever).

Yes, it works great now!
