Add comments, chapters, and links to sequence markers
You use the Marker dialog box to navigate through sequence markers and Encore chapter markers, and to read or add
data to them. Reviewing marker data with the Marker dialog box is a convenient way to review Clip Notes comments,
among other things.
1 In a Timeline panel, double-click a sequence marker, or Encore chapter marker, to open the Marker dialog box.
You can open the Marker dialog box when you set the marker by double-clicking the Set Encore Chapter Marker
button
, or Set Unnumbered Marker button in a Timeline panel.
2 Set any of the following options:
Name Type a name for the marker.
Duration Drag the duration value or click the value to highlight it, type a new value, and press Enter/Return. When
using markers for URL links and chapter markers, you can set sequence markers to be longer than one frame in
duration. You might do this, for example, when setting markers in Premiere Pro that you will convert to cue points in
FLV files. In a Timeline panel, a thin white bar extends from the right side of a sequence marker icon to indicate its
duration.
Comments Type a comment you want associated with the marker. Also, Clip Notes comments, if any, appear in this
field.
Encore Chapter Marker Check this box if you want to make the marker an Encore chapter marker.
Web Link Check this box if you want to make the marker a hyperlink.

is reached in the movie, the web page automatically opens. Web links work only with supported formats such as
QuickTime.
Frame Target This field is enabled only when Web Link is checked. Enter the target frame for a web page if using an
HTML frameset.
Flash Cue Point Check this box to make the marker a cue point in Adobe Flash.
Type This field is enables only if Flash cue Point is selected. Check Event to create a Flash Cue Point marker that will
trigger an event. Check Navigation to create a Flash Cue Point marker that will be used for navigation only.

Note: DVD authoring programs such as Encore adhere to DVD guidelines that restrict the proximity of chapter links.
When setting markers for use as chapter links, make sure to space them at least 15 frames apart, or by the amount
required by your authoring software. Otherwise, your authoring program may move the chapter links automatically.
