Description Cyril Concolato 2013-05-21 09:51:04 UTC 
The spec indicates:
"Playback should continue until all the media passed in via appendBuffer() and appendStream() has been played"

I'm not sure it is appropriate for MSE to indicate what happens for playback.
Comment 1 Cyril Concolato 2013-05-21 14:47:25 UTC 
Is the purpose of the sentence to indicate that all frames remaining in the input buffer be processed, including the last one (for which the duration may not be known)? In that case, I think it should be rephrased reusing coded frame processing algorithm.

Marking all pre-Last Call bugs
Comment 3 Aaron Colwell 2013-05-28 17:26:37 UTC 
I'm just going to remove this sentence. What I really am trying to say is that when the current playback position reaches the end of the data in the active source buffers, it should run all the typical "end of stream" behavior instead of stalling playback. Obviously this isn't what is being said here and I think the proper location to state this is elsewhere in the spec.
