Video Chapters
I am wondering if there is a way of inserting chapter points into an embedded video. To be clear, I would like a video to play to a particular point, say 2 min 30 sec then stop. At this point the learner is presented with a series of questions which require answers. Once the answers are submitted the video resumes where it stopped and continues to play until another point where a second series of questions is presented. And so on... Is this possible? Or am I required to prepare my video in sections beforehand then insert each section into a separate Storyline page?

Wow. 5 years late to the party! I bet you've moved on, but I'd like to take a stab.
I bet you could drop the video in the slide and create separate triggers and variables for when you'd like the video to stop, show a question, and then resume upon submission. Maybe something like:
- Pause media when timeline reaches 2 mins 30 sec
- Show lightbox (your question) when timeline reaches 2 mins 30 sec
- BONUS - Add a fade in transition to your lightbox slides so it's not so abrupt
- Submit answer when user clicks Submit
- Adjust variable Ques1answered to True when user clicks Submit
- Jump back to video slide after user clicks Submit
- Resume media if Ques1answered is True
Then repeat for each time you'd like to pause the video.
