Happy to make chapters for the Saltmarsh Kitchen cooking video. I have the order of the parts ("intro", "knife skills", "the sauce"), but I need exact times before I can build anything, so I am stopping here.
Required, missing or unclear: 1. segments: the start time of each part in m:ss or h:mm:ss form, with a line on what happens in it. I compute each chapter's length from the start times, and YouTube needs the first timestamp to be 00:00, the list in ascending order, at least 3 chapters and each chapter at least 10 seconds. I will not guess times. If anything else happens between or after these three parts, list it too. 2. video_length: the exact total length, for example [m:ss] or [h:mm:ss]. "About 20 min" is not enough, because the last chapter runs to the end of the video and its length has to be checked.
Optional, defaults I will use: - main_term: the words you want the video found for. Default: none, so chapter titles use only words from your segment notes. If you give one, I use it only in a title whose notes already contain it. - description_draft: your current or planned description. Default: I return the chapter block only and do not check the full description against YouTube's 5,000 character limit (characters including spaces). Paste it if you want that check.
Note: chapters you add replace automatic chapters, and whether YouTube shows chapters on a given video is not confirmed in my sources. I will not paste anything into a live video without your approval.
Paste the start times and the exact length in one message, and I will return the segment lengths, the chapter list, the checks and a short outline.
