Is this ever written in the files or is it calculated by the player? If the
later, it does not belong to the BSS.


Either way this belongs in AVFormatContext and the demuxer.


Don't forget that the composer can edit this value in case if ever
needed. TuComposer has a synth-sound assember which should be a turing
machine making it impossible under certain situations to calculate
playback time correctly, so the user can edit and adjust that manually.

Also some formats don't have even something close like a clear song-end
detection. In that case, the user can add it manually. That's the
purpose of this field.

From your explanation this field has two, possible conflicting, meanings:

a) The known duration of the file
b) The time after which the song should be forced by the player to finish

(a) should be in lavf, while (b) should have zero as default value, meaning never force the song to end.

I think you should leave this field just for (b) (and document it accordingly) and set (a) in lavf. I'd even rename it forced_song_end_time.
