            Bug ID: 190631
           Summary: [MSE] Use nanoseconds as MaximumTimeScale
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Media Elements
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: aboya at igalia.com

The current MediaTime::MaximumTimeScale is 0x7fffffff (2^31-1), which is quite undesirable: it's a prime number, so it does not accomodate *any* other timescale without rounding.

I propose to use 1e9 (nanosecond timescale) as maximum timescale: it's very close to 2^31 (a bit under 2^30 actually) and it's already being used by both Matroska (WebM) and GStreamer.
