Adding/Editing chapters

This feature is only available when Create menu is selected. Through this option, you can create submenus
linked to their associated video clips. See "Setup menus" 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 is particularly
useful when you want to attract your viewers by giving them 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.
