## Frequently asked questions

### When should I split by silence?

Use it when pauses reliably separate speech and exact edit points are unavailable; review the thresholds because music and room tone can create unwanted boundaries.

### What is the difference between chapters and labels?

Chapters are embedded navigation metadata, while labels are an external marker plan. Choose the splitter that matches the structure you already have.

### How do I make equal delivery parts?

Use duration splitting when every part must meet a fixed length, then review boundaries and assemble the files if needed.
