Apple's Tutorial on QuickTime Chapter Tracks

[Mikael Grounes]

Among the tutorials on Apple's QuickTime pages 
<http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tools_tips/tutorials/> is one on 
Chapter Tracks. There a 14-step cook-book-type description is given 
on how to add the ability to jump to pre-determined places in a QT 
movie by adding a chapter menu to the right of the progress bar below 
the picture. Has anybody applied this 'recipe' succesfully?

I have a PB G4 with a Swedish OS 9.1 and QT 5. I always obtain a 
blank first chapter title and two of the later chapter titles are 
repeated (and others correpondingly missing) although I end up at the 
right places in the movie when I click on the places where the titles 
should have been.

I have heard another person, with a U.S. OS 10 and QT 6 report the 
same behavior.

This tuorial seems to be written in haste. Under Step 3 it mentions 
'set fractions of seconds as 1/30', this only applies to NTSC, while 
the correct number for PAL is 1/25, furthermore under Step 4 it 
mentions 'the button with 4 dots' which does not exist in QT 5 and 6 
(I vagely remember it in QT 4). Also under Step 1 it says 'add a 
carriage return after each topic', I suspect that 'exept the last 
one' should be added.
