Through this option, you can create submenus linked to their associated video clips. See “Setup Menu” for more details.

Represented as a video thumbnail in a submenu, each chapter is like a bookmark for a video clip. Viewers can easily select a chapter, then the video clip will immediately jump to the first scene of that chapter and start the playback.

This feature gives your viewers the freedom to choose a particular part of the movie to watch. Note that these small video thumbnails only link to its “mother” video without generating any additional physical video files. So, you don’t need to worry about the possibility of unexpected file size increase.

You can create up to 99 chapters for a video clip. If the Create menu option is not selected, you will be guided to the Preview step immediately without creating any menus after clicking Next.

3.Click Auto Add Chapters . You can also drag the Jog Slider to move to a

scene to use as the first frame of a chapter and click Add Chapter . Repeat this step until all chapter points have been added.
