How are you determining that the output mp4 file does not have chapters?
Also, can you confirm that your are NOT using the HandBrake build in the Ubuntu Repo. I.e you are using the PPA build we provide or flatpak.
I am using the video player on ubuntu and the plex server video player. Both recognize the chapters in the mkv file, neither recognize the chapters in the mp4 file.
I am using the ppa here, which I believe is the ppa provided on this github. http://ppa.launchpad.net/stebbins/handbrake-releases/ubuntu
Edit: Based on your comment that made me do further research. The chapters do appear on my apple device using the outputted mp4 file. This might be an ubuntu player specific issue and not related to HandBrake. You can close this issue if you would agree.
The log indicates the file appears to be fine and the fact Apple Players are working suggests that indeed it's a player problem.
DNLA and Web Based UI's might be problematic. Plex app standalone I'd have thought would be fine unless served over a network.
Problem description:
My process is MakeMKV to HandBrake in order to format the videos for the devices in my home. The MKV file has chapter markers, however, after running it through HandBrake there are no more chapter markers. The Chapters are found and displayed on the Chapters tab in HandBrake also the box is checked to add markers.
HandBrake version (e.g., 1.3.0):
1.3.3
Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 19.10, macOS 10.15 Catalina, Windows 10 1909):
Ubuntu 20.04
Error message text and/or screenshot:
There is no error message, just no chapter markers.
