Adding a chapter to a video
More information
The video file must be MP4 encoded in order to edit (create + modify) chapters. Chapter editing will not be possible for FLV videos but these will still display chapters in the video player if the video has also been MP4 encoded alongside. If the MP4 video is deleted, chapters will still remain in place on the FLV but without the option to edit them.
As the iPhone (but not the iPad) handles video playback itself, chapters are not currently visible on iPhone.
It is not possible to use this tool for audio-only media.
