Step 2 - Edit

1. Simply click on "Insert a chapter break" at anytime during the Video Preview to create a chapter. You can skip to any part of the recording by using the trackbar or entering in a specific time and clicking on "Move To". Alternatively, ClickView also allows you to seek within a particular chapter by using the lower trackbar. ClickView's new, innovative, dual trackbar design, allows users to conveniently and quickly seek to specific sections of the video. (This feature is only available with ClickView Library Server/Manager 1.4 or above)

   

2. After creating chapters for your video, you will notice that the chapters will be listed in the "Video Chapter Details" section. Instead of manually adding chapters, you can also choose to have the video automatically broken into chapters for you by clicking on "Auto Insert Breaks." If you ever need to later re-combine chapters together, simply highlight adjacent chapters by holding down CTRL and click on "Merge Chapters."

   

3. When you have finished creating chapters for your video, untick the desired chapters wish you want to exclude. This allows you to remove advertisements or any other unwanted sections of the recording. Give your video a title and click on "OK".
