    Hello there,

    does anyone know, if it is possible to have DVDA set chapters automatically at certain time intervals (e.g. every 5 min.)? I searched around and didn't find a hint anywhere on this. Neither in the online-help nor the manual.

    Is it possible that a tool like this does not have such a feature?

    Try this:

    Open DVDArchitect, load project with media.
    Create chapters where you like them (scene changes, etc).
    With the current video in the timeline, click on the [SAVE MARKERS] button and save to an external file. Hopefully it's a text file.

    Look at the file in Notepad. See how the format is structured.
    Duplicate this in a new file, but change the times to be 0, 3, 6, 9 minutes, etc. Save.

    Now, back to DVDA, with same video in timeline, click on the [LOAD MARKERS] button. Use the newly created file.

    Done.

    Thanks for the fast answer. I had thought of something like this, but had hoped for an easier way. But the way you describe it, it may yet work without too much 'sweat' for future projects.
