 ChapterMaker can also write the chapter information directly to an existing MKV file simply by selecting the file for output.  This requires that [MKVToolNix](https://mkvtoolnix.download/index.html) be installed, and the path set in the ChapterMaker settings.

 **ChapterMaker** is an application to assist in preparing and editing video chapter files. It provides a host of features that allow tremendous flexibility in the way that the files are prepared.

 Chapter times and titles are maintained in separate lists that are matched up to provide the final collection for export. Both the times and titles can be imported separately from existing files such as those from [ChapterDb](http://www.chapterdb.org), or can be developed from scratch. There is even the ability to develop the chapter times list from a text file listing the titles and durations, such as you might copy ’n’ paste from websites like [Barnes & Noble](http://www.barnesandnoble.com)  \(e.g.: [Scene Index for The Fugitive](http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/dvd-the-fugitive-harrison-ford/3620082?ean=0883929084784#SceneIndex)).
+
+If an MKV file is selected as an input file, any existing chapter information is extracted using [MKVToolNix](https://mkvtoolnix.download/index.html) and imported.

 If you are not importing chapter times from an existing file, they can be entered manually, or every set interval up to a maximum time. Individual times can be added, edited or deleted, or blocks of times can be scaled or shifted. There is also an option to adjust the chapter times to try to match frame boundaries based on a specified frame rate. After every change, the times list is re-sorted chronologically.

 Individual chapter titles can be inserted, edited or deleted as required. They can also be re-ordered by dragging and dropping them within the list. There is a utility included to adjust the titles to proper title case, based on some customizable word rules. This can be used at any time.

-Once you have the titles matched up to the times as you want them, you can output your list in either standard XML (Extensible Markup Language), OGM (Ogg Media) or plain text format files.
