How To Add Chapters To A Mkv

Alright, we'll simply become right to the point.. Let'due south say that I'thou watching a concert movie, but hell, I can't seek through the song via chapter.. Now I must click and click through the seekbar to observe the song (which is really not handy at all)..

Then and so I decide to make the capacity myself.. How?? Well then, here is step by footstep on how to brand the chapters using MKVToolNix..

First, install MKVToolNix.. You tin can get it from Here

Now, if you're done installing it, open the mkvmerge..

Now, you lot will have it like this.. Choose the "(unnamed) [und]".. This will be our 1st affiliate in the video..

It should goes like this..

At present, I will give some piffling caption nigh the "Things" that I marked above..
1. Start  --> Starting fourth dimension of your chapter

2. Stop   --> End time of your chapter

The Start & Finish time format is hh:mm:ss.ms

east.g. Start 00:14:53.5 -------- Stop 00:17:42.123 means the chapter kickoff at xiv min 53 sec + 500 ms and end at 17 min 42 sec + 123 ms

iii. UID  --> This is a unique identifier for each chapter.. UID normally assigned automatically by the program, merely can be changed only if it is actually needed (which mean y'all usually doesn't take to carp irresolute it)

4. Hidden --> if this is checked, the histrion won't show the current chapter entry to user (merely however can be used by the menu organization)

5. Enabled --> If this is unmarked (unchecked), the player will skip the role which the current chapter occupies (so aye, you should go on this checked unless you don't want the chapter to be played)

6. Name --> Affiliate proper name, used and then the user can identify the chapter.

7. Language & Country --> Chapter linguistic communication and country value.. Just left information technology bare / undertermined..

So then, nosotros showtime making our affiliate.. Set the "Start" and "Stop" time and also the "Proper noun"..

The above case will set a affiliate called "Opening" from 00:00:00 until 00:00:26 (yes, 26 seconds long from the beginning of the movie)..

If you're done, but click at the "(new affiliate file)" or the "EditionEntry i".. Or if you want to add another affiliate, but click the "Add Chapter" button..

Echo the in a higher place pace until you finish making all your affiliate...

Okay.. Now y'all say, "I've finished my chapters.. Then what should I do?".. Yes, nosotros'll save it into the video..

Choose the video you want to add the chapter...

Expect for the analysis to exist finished...

• Gap between chapters is bad.. Try to make all the chapters continuous..
