Hi folks
Just wondering if there is a plan to add chapter functionality (similar to that in YouTube and Microsoft Stream / ClipChamp) to Canvas Studio?
This would really expand usability of Studio videos for owner / creators and users.
I would be interested in knowing (and having) this too.
With that said, in general (and I know this is different from how a lot of other content - podcasts, TV shows, YouTube videos - is created and consumed) it is recommended that educational videos be "chunked" and most studies/research or guidance says anything between 6 minutes and 15 minutes is good but nothing more than 20 minutes.
While it is still possible for "short" videos to have chapters, I am not sure how helpful it would be.
My preference would be for it to be possible to turn a Canvas Studio collection into a playlist because separate videos in a playlist can serve a similar purpose as a chapter.

I'd also be curious about this! @Akos Farago, do you have any insights on this?
Thanks for the detailed reply Doug - a playlist would be another great feature.
Having the ability to add chapters and have a playlist gives flexibility. Searchable transcripts would be another feature that would give users another way of engaging with video and audio content.
Let's go with adding all 3 functions!
It is also important to consider how use of media changes over time - the impact of platforms like Tik Tok plus emergence of podcasts can influence how people engage with videos in our content.
You are welcome, @RaeJobst-GU!

Hot off the press! Thank you!
