Podcast episode chapters?
Does anyone know if you can still add chapter markers to podcast episode and have Apple Podcasts pick them up?
Looking to see if this is still possible and what the best way to implement on my show.
Thanks.

I don't use Apple Podcasts but I've been looking at iTunes with my own podcast, which contains chapters, each of which has its own image. When you play the podcast from the iTunes Store it does not display this image nor list the chapters. When you subscribe (so that the episode is downloaded) clicking on the small image at the top of the window opens the mini-player, and this does display the changing images: and you can list the chapters by clicking on the three lateral dots below the image (pretty unintuitive).
I can't answer for Apple Podcasts but if you want to try it out with a podcast known to have chapters you can try it with mine before committing to your own podcast.

Presumably only subscribing will produce the chapters (since you need to have downloaded the entire file to get the chapter information, you can't access it while streaming).
