+

+
+		00:00 - 00:10	Opening Credits
+		00:10 - 00:12	Book 1
+		00:12 - 00:14	|	Part 1

+		01:40 - 03:20	|	|	Chapter 2

+		03:22 - 05:00	|	|	Chapter 3
+		05:00 - 06:40	|	|	Chapter 4
+		06:40 - 06:42	Book 2
+		06:42 - 06:44	|	Part 3
+		06:44 - 08:20	|	|	Chapter 5
+		08:20 - 10:00	|	|	Chapter 6
+		10:00 - 10:02	|	Part 4
+		10:02 - 11:40	|	|	Chapter 7
+		11:40 - 13:20	|	|	Chapter 8
+		13:20 - 13:30	End Credits
+
+		And flattenChapters will combine them into this:
+
+		00:00 - 00:10	Opening Credits
+		00:10 - 01:40	Book 1: Part 1: Chapter 1
+		01:40 - 03:20	Book 1: Part 1: Chapter 2
+		03:20 - 05:00	Book 1: Part 2: Chapter 3

+		11:40 - 13:20	Book 2: Part 4: Chapter 8
+		13:20 - 13:40	End Credits
+
+		However, if one of the parent chapters is longer than 10000 milliseconds, it's kept as its own
+		chapter. A duration longer than a few seconds implies that the chapter contains more than just
+		the narrator saying the chapter title, so it should probably be preserved as a separate chapter.
+		Using the example above, if "Book 1" was 15 seconds long and "Part 3" was 20 seconds long:
+
+		00:00 - 00:10	Opening Credits
+		00:10 - 00:25	Book 1
+		00:25 - 00:27	|	Part 1

+		01:40 - 03:20	|	|	Chapter 2
+		03:20 - 03:22	|	Part 2
+		03:22 - 05:00	|	|	Chapter 3
+		05:00 - 06:40	|	|	Chapter 4
+		06:40 - 06:42	Book 2
+		06:42 - 07:02	|	Part 3
+		07:02 - 08:20	|	|	Chapter 5
+		08:20 - 10:00	|	|	Chapter 6
+		10:00 - 10:02	|	Part 4
+		10:02 - 11:40	|	|	Chapter 7
+		11:40 - 13:20	|	|	Chapter 8
+		13:20 - 13:30	End Credits
