I see one of the improvements listed in the latest Beta version is support for chapters in playlists. Can you please tell me how to get this to work?
Many thanks in advance.Best wishes,
Andy

Hello Andy,
it works, but I noticed the list of chapters below the playlist only shows if the last video in playlist has chapters.
Also, if you start the playlist playback by clicking one of the chapters below the video, clicking the chapters list for the next video does not work.
We will get it fixed.
Thanks,
Martin
Thanks for your prompt response, Martin.
So the chapters (for the video currently playing) appear beneath the playlist…
We’re looking at various options at the moment. Playlists with chapters would seem an obvious contender.
While writing this reply however, I realised it might be a better option for us to use the Transcripts option.
Instead of actual chapters, we’re using the Chapter links as shortcuts to highlights in our training videos, so that viewers can easily watch a particular section again. This means that some of the videos have a lot of chapters. (Some have 30 or more).
I wondered whether it might be possible to present them in a sort of ‘dropdown’ as per Transcripts.
It then occurred to me that having our ‘chapters’ appear as a transcript could be a great solution! I just tried it, and it works very well, except I’d like to have black text on a white background. I’ll see whether I can do that with CSS.
Looking at some of the threads here make me realise what a task you have. So many people must be wanting to customise their video players in so many different ways – it must be a huge challenge!
Thanks for your help,
Best wishes,
Andy
