Chapter - bookmarking import support

siymann · 2008-08-12 05:18

Hi,

I searched the forums if this was already talked about or implemented but couldn't see anything..

I have my DVD backup in xvid format, but would like to be able to skip through the video (chapters). Can importing chapter info (either via nfo or someother means) for avi files be added?

I suggest your best bet is using a container format that has chapter support, such as mkv or mp4.

Yeah, AVI does not support chapters as far as I know (mkv or mp4 does).
...but XBMC does support EDL (Edit Decision Kist) and SceneMarkers, see:
