Hello! I hope that someone can help me. I need to insert a Media Marker that allow me to skip forward or go back to positions within a session or file, as if you do in a CD with separate tracks. I am an audiobook publisher and need to create tracks within files. Can you help me how to do this in Sound Forge 9. Thanks in advance for your help. |

- Ctrl.+ Left/Right arrow. - View> Metadata> Regions List (Ctrl.+ L + Win) - Create a Regions Playlist. - Change Markers to Regions; save Regions as files and create Events. I'm sure there's other ways I have not thought of. Many of which can be accomplished via Scripting. |

Thank you! When creating the regions, which input format, do I have to use? Thereafter I need to save the file in WMA, and the file has to contain the tracks when you play it. |

I'm afraid you can't expect the markers in a WMV to do anything unless you are able to program a player to respond to such markers. If you want it to act like tracks on a CD player then you need to make a wmv (rather wma) for each track. This is how most audio books are organized afaik. Jesse |

Dear Jesse, Thank you for your response. My question was in WMA, no WMV. We already sell audiobooks in CDs, and you are right we put each track a separated files in each CD. One of our digital distributors, already puts tracks inside a single WMA file and players recognize thems and you can skip forward and go back. Maybe I have to use another software. |

I did a google search and found lots of results. Looks like you need the windows media encoder pack (free) to use the file editor to add markers. Jesse |

Thank you Jesse! I just download the encoder program. I will spend the night learning how to do it. I'll write if I have any problem. Regards, |
