How to sort markers

I think this has come up before but cannot find it so I'll see if anyone remembers.

I'm going through an opera putting in markers at all the Act/Scene point for DVDA. However as i didn't have a synopsis to start with and knowing nothing about opera all I had to search for was the fades to black so I mised a few.

Now I've found them except my markers are now numbered 1,3,2,4,6,5 along the time line.

So I go into edit detail and I can sort my markers by TC but how do I get them back onto the time line in that order?

I know this doesn't sound like a big deal but I suspect when DVDA uses these markers to create a scene selection menu it'll be in the order they are numbered not their sequence on the TL. If I'm wrong here then my question is total irrelevant.

No, DVDA will place the chapter at the correct time order. The name of the chapters will be wrong. For use with DVDA you should rename the marker or rename the scene in DVDA.

That's a relief,
just a bit twitchy about markers in DVDA, last time I dropped a scene selection menu into DVDA it caused the file size to nearly double and then it tried to re-encode everything before going into never never land.
