corner of the window, choose the correct subtitle track that you wish to play with
the video presentation.
Save your DVD project and test the menu functionality in the Preview window (under “File”
on the menu bar and “Preview”). The menu you created should play first and you will be able
to interact with the buttons you created.
Adding Chapters
Chapters provide a simple and convenient method to navigate through a DVD presentation.
When you create a timeline, the first chapter point is automatically created. Subsequent
chapter points can be inserted to link to specific scenes in the presentation such that the
viewer can move forward or backward in the presentation using the Next or Previous Chapter
commands.
To add a chapter
1. Open the timeline of the video asset and move the playhead to the appropriate
location in the video where you wish to add a chapter.
2. From the menu bar, choose “Timeline” and “Add Chapter Point.” You may also use
the buttons on the Timeline viewer or the Monitor window.
To delete a chapter
1. Open the timeline of the video asset and select the chapter point(s) for deletion.
2. Press the “Delete” key to remove the chapter points. Save your project when you
have removed the chapter points.
Note—if you add a menu and create chapters, you can link the buttons on the menu to the
various chapter points. However, if you have created a separate “Play Video with Subtitles”
button for the main menu, then the separate chapter points will not have subtitles enabled
when you activate those chapter points from the main menu.
Credit Line
If you had to get permission to caption a video that was not produced on campus, it is a good
idea to include a permissions disclaimer at the beginning of the video. At the end of the
video, you may add a notice stating who did the captions (i.e., which campus) and add the
date the media was captioned.
