15:55 BOCA (Inst.))
assert.deepStrictEqual(chapters, [
{ start: 0, title: 'Intro' },
{ start: 96, title: 'BOCA' },
{ start: 284, title: 'Break the wall' },
{ start: 509, title: "Can't get you out of my mind" },
{ start: 729, title: 'Dear' },
{ start: 955, title: 'BOCA (Inst.)' }
])
`
The return value is an array of { start, title } objects. start` is the start
time in seconds. Chapters run until the start of the next chapter, or the end of
the video.
