4 Choose Mark > Create Podcast Markers from FCP Chapters.
The chapter markers from the Final Cut Pro sequence are inserted in the podcast track
as podcast chapter markers. The markers have the same names they did in
Final Cut Pro. By default, this operation sets the Image Source pop-up menu to Video at
Start of Section. For more information about the Image Source pop-up menu, see
“
Using the Image Source Pop-Up Menu ” on page 386.
Adding Images to a Podcast
Your podcasts can display still images on iTunes and iPod. Using the podcast track
together with the Details tab, you can add a single image for an entire podcast or
create a slideshow of images that plays in sync with the audio portion of your podcast.
If your project has a video track, you can use frames of the video as still images in your
podcast. You can also add other still images to your podcast.
Setting an Episode Image for an Entire Podcast
A common podcasting practice is to insert a single, representative image for an audio
podcast so that it displays (in iTunes and on iPod) during the entire episode.
To set an episode image for a podcast:
1 In the Project tab, scroll down to the Metadata > Episode Image section.
2 Do one of the following:
 Drag a still image from the Finder or from iPhoto to the Episode Image image well or
copy an image in an image editing application and paste it into the image well.
 Click Choose and, in the dialog that appears, navigate to the image file you want to
add and click Open.
Note: You can add any of the following image types using the Image Source pop-up
menu: PDF, EPS, TIFF, JPG, GIF, PNG, PICT, BMP, ICO, and ICNS.
3 To display the podcast track, choose Show > Podcast Track from the Show pop-up
menu in the upper-right corner of the Timeline.
