Video Chapter in Filmora on Windows
The Video Chapters feature in Filmora automatically creates a chapter-based progress bar that visually divides your video into meaningful sections based on timestamps and titles. Instead of manually designing segmented progress bars you can simply define your chapters and let Filmora generate the navigation bar for you.
Whether you're creating tutorials, online courses, product reviews, or corporate training videos, Video Chapters provide viewers with a clearer understanding of your video's structure.
Key Highlights of This Feature
- Chapter Setup: You can add, remove, or reorder chapters as needed. You get the ability to add chapter text up to 50 characters with emojis. Filmora automatically validates each timestamp to ensure every chapter appears in chronological order.
- Chapter Text Customization: Once your chapters are created, you can customize how every chapter title appears on the progress bar, including font family, font size, font color, bold/italic, alignment, uppercase/lowercase, letter spacing, outline, shadow, and opacity.
- Progress Bar Customization: Personalize the chapter progress bar appearance (height, corner radius, border thickness, played/un-played colors, opacity, and shadow effects). The bar divides automatically based on timestamps.
- Playhead Customization: Choose a built-in rectangular playhead or upload your own PNG/animated GIF to match branding or style.
