Unfortunately, chapter placement is not a frame accurate process. Chapters must be marked on "i-frames". Frames in MPG files can be either I, P, or B frames. I have NO idea what that actually means. But I do know that a chapter marker can only exist on an I frame.   CinemaCraft Encoder lets you plan out your chapters in advance and you can tell it where you want the chapters to be and it'll make sure that when it encodes the video, it encodes it so that you get an I frame at the chapter point you wish.

 i'm using encore 1.0.1, and attempting to place chapter markers on the
 timeline. whichever method i use to do this, some timelines won't let
 me place my chapter marker on the absolute frame i want it to be set
 at.
 
 encore continually moves the marker back to between 2 and about 15
 frames from where i want it to be. ultimately this means each new
 chapter contains the last few frames of the last.
 
 the chapter markers are well spaced, i.e not within a few frames of
 one antoher.
 
 anyone else come across this issue, or better still, know of a fix?
 
 TIA.
 
 tim.
