Hi

Have you started the playback first before testing the Next/Previous chapter buttons on the virtual remote?

Do note that you may get a flash of the main menu when switching chapters, this is normal and only occurs in the preview.

Yes. The movie is playing and I have three 'chapter' markers. Hitting the key >| does nothing

Hi

Does the Chapter menu show up in the disc menu when in Preview mode?

If not are the chapters turned on as shown below when in Edit mode?

Can you post a screen shot of the timeline showing the chapter markers - please crop the image, we just need the part of the timeline showing the markers.

In 'Interface for Editing' I have three chapter markers (beyond the very beginning). In 'Interface for burning' in Edit mode in the Navigation window only one box shows. In your example I'm guessing you have four chapter markers.

Hi

There are 4 chapter markers in the image I posted.

I suspect the markers in your timeline are project markers, see image below

I add Chapter markers using the Shift + Enter keyboard combination.

I put the curser over the second flag, went to Edit at the top, chose Markers, Delete Chapter Markers, and the marker disappeared. I think project markers never show as a flag.

Hi

Can you set the Chapter markers - use Shift + Enter and then post a screenshot of what you get.

Very interesting. Look at the earlier screen shot of the Navigation window and there is no [+] showing. I did as you requested and rather than using the menu system of '(markers)-(set chapter markers)' I did the Shift-Enter. After that the Burn-Navigation window shows a [+] and the Remote works as expected. I think you have a program bug.

Hi

. . . . Look at the earlier screen shot of the Navigation window and there is no [+] showing. . . . .

Having a screenshot of the timeline when the project was in that state would have helped identify the issue you were having.

. . . . I think you have a program bug . . . .

If you wish to raise a bug report see this Support article on how to raise a ticket, however you may not get a reply until early next week. Please note that this is a user to user forum not Magix Support.

You are a lot smarter and knowledgeable than I on this stuff. Can you forward the emails to Support?

@ed-burke

Hi

Unfortunately not, there are no emails to send, the forum is a web based discussion area, the only emails associated with it are the notifications you receive that a comment has been made to your post.

When you go through the Support system there are some questions which only you can answer.

I'm not having any trouble setting chapter markers, and then having them display, using the Edit>Markers method.

@ed-burke Ed, is this repeatable in a different project?

@johnebaker

I suspect the markers in your timeline are project markers,

John, they are quite different. The project markers require a text entry and do look different.

All my forum comments are based on or refer to my System 1.

My struggle is over! I built my (now) system 2 in 2011 when DV was king and MPEG 2 was just coming onto the scene and I needed a more powerful system to cope. Since then we've advanced to MP4 and to bigger and bigger resolutions. I was really suffering, not so much in editing (with proxies) but in encoding, which just took ages. A video, with Neat Video noise reduction applied, would encode at 12% of film speed. My new system 1 does the same job at 160% of film speed. Marvellous. I'm keeping my old system as a capture station for analogue video tapes and DV.

Hi Alwyn

. . . . they are quite different. The project markers require a text entry and do look different . . . .

They are, do not, and do - see the image above I posted.

You do not have to enter any text, though it is useful, just OK the dialog, you will see they are numbered to match the keyboard shortcut to jump from one to the other using Ctrl + number (top row keyboard numbers, not the numberpad). Ctrl + 0 is the 10th marker, 11 onwards do not have a keyboard shortcut.
