Google is adding a new feature to Google Chrome that allows publishers to add video chapters to videos embedded on websites, similar to how chapters work on YouTube.
Video chapters break a video into different sections, each with its own preview, helping viewers find and rewatch specific parts easily.
"The corresponding implementation on the blink layer based on the w3c api change, which is to add the `ChapterInformation` attribute in the existing `MediaMetadata`," Google noted in an update to the Chrome status page.
Google plans to include this feature in Chrome for Desktop 126, allowing embedded videos to use chapters for easier navigation.
