Chapter progress on Kobo Aura H2O

I just got a Kobo Aura H2O (Edition 2) and I can only get it to show progress for the entire book (page count or percentage), rather than for the current chapter. ("Time remaining" doesn't work at all—if I select that option it just defaults to page count.)

Based on what I've read, whether the device can display chapter progress depends on the file being read. But if I know what features of an epub file Kobo uses to determine chapter progress, maybe I can edit the books in Calibre to insert any features Kobo could use for this. Does anyone know enough about how Kobo determines chapter progress to offer suggestions?
