This was exactly my thought.
If playcount="5" causes the video to be played 5 times, what should
the result of each of these be?
playcount="1"
playcount="0"
playcount="-5"
playcount="foobar"
Is there any possible usefulness whatsoever in making playcount="0"
not play the video at all? If not, I don't see a good reason not to
use that to mean infinite looping.
Either that, or some keyword, but I don't know what it should be.
"infinite" and "forever" come to mind.
