DWS 2 Different end points for 4 different Chapters

Post by dennisbthomas »

Is it possible to set different end points for 4 different chapters in the same clip? So far all the chapters end at the end of the clip.

Or do I need to create four separate clips?

Thanks for your help.

:( No, not with Workshop. (Apparently, it is possible with more advanced authoring software.... Maybe when Workshop 3 comes out???)

You can start a title (clip) at any chapter, but it will always play to the end of the title.

You get more control if you break it into separate titles, but you will get a pause between titles. So for example, you wouldn't want to break a movie into several titles.

Doug,
Thanks for the quick response.

Too bad as that would be a good feature; as you said we can hope for DWS 3.0!

Depending upon how long your video(s) are you could consider a mixture.
Have 1 video as at present with 4 chapters
Have another 4 seperate videos which are duplicates of the chapters from the single video above.

Obviously this all depends upon how big your video is for it to be feasible.
Then create menus accordingly.
