How to add chapters to videos? #173

Open MelissaKR opened 3 years ago

MelissaKR commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I'm trying to add chapters to an uploaded video using the Python SDK. I don't get any errors but the chapters don't show up either. This is how I'm doing it:

client.upload_texttrack(uri, 'chapters', 'en-US', 'chapters_file.vtt')

and the vtt file looks something like this:

WEBVTT

00:20.000 --> 00:21.000
First Chapter

00:40.000 --> 00:41.000
Second Chapter

I'm wondering if I'm not doing it right or the functionality is not supported.

According to the docs https://developer.vimeo.com/api/upload/texttracks, it is not supported.

NOTE: You can't currently add chapters to a video by uploading them through the API, but you can create them manually through our onsite tool. For more information, see our Help Center.

Hi it looks like there is an API for that https://developer.vimeo.com/api/reference/videos#create_chapter example: v.post('/videos/12345/chapters', data={"timecode": 0, "title":"test"})
