Set Chapters
Chapters allow for ease of navigation on a DVD. If you set chapters,
viewers can jump from the menu page to the start of these chapters in
order to skip previous content. However, your content may not
require chapters, or you may choose not to include them.
Note: If you do not set chapters, your movie automatically starts
to play when your final disc is inserted into a player.
To set chapters, do this:
1. Click Set Chapters.
2. Set the chapters in your DVD.

If you want to specify the number of chapters in your DVD,

the playback controls to locate the points, then click to
set chapters at these points.

If you want PowerProducer to set chapters for you, select the
