# Chapter markers
-In addition to the captions, you may also want to create a separate
-file noting chapter marks for use in the video player. You can send
-chapter markers as timestamps and text (hh:mm:ss note, one per line)
-or as WebVTT files that look something like this:
+In addition to the captions, you may also want to add chapter markers.
+An easy way to do that is to add a =NOTE Chapter heading= before the
+subtitle that starts the chapter. For example:
```text
-WEBVTT
+...
+00:05:13.880 --> 00:05:20.119
+So yeah, like that's currently the problem.

+We can then extract those with

-If you're using subed, you can make chapter markers by adding NOTE
-comments with the chapter headings before the subtitles in the
-chapter. Then we can use
-`emacsconf-subed-make-chapter-file-based-on-comments` from
-https://git.emacsconf.org/emacsconf-el/tree/emacsconf-subed.el to
-create the chapter file.
-
-Alternatively, you can make chapter markers by making a copy of your
-WebVTT file and then using `subed-merge-dwim` (bound to `M-m` by
-default) on a region including the subtitles that you want to merge.
-You can also use `subed-set-subtitle-text` or
-`subed-merge-region-and-set-text` - if you can think of good
-keybindings for those, please suggest them!
