# Creating Chapters
## Content
You can create chapters by creating a [C1MediaChapter](/componentone/api/wpf/online-mediaplayer/dotnet-framework-api/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.4.6.2/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.C1MediaChapter.html) item and then settings its [C1MediaChapter.Position](/componentone/api/wpf/online-mediaplayer/dotnet-framework-api/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.4.6.2/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.C1MediaChapter.Position.html) property. This topic assumes that you have completed the [Adding Media Content](/componentone/docs/wpf/online-mediaplayer/C1MediaPlayer_Task-Based_Help/Adding_Media_Content) task-based help topic.
