Bug ID: 360362
Summary: Feature Request: Option to have title clips used as
Chapter markers in mp4, mkv files
Product: kdenlive
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Video Display & Export
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
Reporter: nospam...@gmail.com
It would be great if an option existed to use Template Titles as Chapter
markers in .mp4 and .mkv files (and if possible, any other container format
which supports chapters). The template title text would be used as the Chapter
marker text and the Chapter mark would automatically be placed at the beginning
of the Template Title.
While it would be wonderful if this functionality could be completely
integrated into Kdenlive, as an interim step, it would great if Kdenlive could
generate the chapter files used by mkvmerge (part of the mkvtoolnix package) or
MP4Box. That way it would be fairly straightforward to incorporate the titles
outside of Kdenlive (until the functionality was built in).
Examples of files and use of these programs are at:
mkvmerge: http://savvyadmin.com/adding-chapters-to-videos-using-mkv-containers/
MP4Box: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1462054#post1462054
If this can't be easily implemented using Template Titles, then a
next-best-thing would be to implement it using Guides, similar to how you're
currently using Guides to mark chapters in the DVD wizard.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
N/A
Actual Results:
N/A
Expected Results:
N/A
Having this feature would greatly decrease the time necessary to create a video
file with chapter markers. Today I have to: 1) Determine the starting frame
of each Template Title, 2) Hand-create a chapter file for the desired video
format, 3) Render the video file in Kdenlive, and finally 4) Run the necessary
program to add the chapter marks to the video file. This feature would
automate almost all of that process.
Thanks for considering!
