SIA-R24<video>
element visual content has transcript
Accessibility requirements
This rule tests conformance of the following accessibility requirements:
Description
This rule checks that prerecorded <video>
elements have all audio and visual information available in a transcript.
Applicability
This rule applies to every prerecorded <video>
element that is visible where the video contains audio.
Expectations
- The visual information of each test target is available through a text transcript that is available either on the page or through a link. That text transcript is visible and included in the accessibility tree.
Assumptions
This rule makes the following assumptions:
-
A mechanism is available to start the video and the video element is not simply used to display the poster.
-
The language of each test target can be correctly determined, either programmatically or by analyzing the content, and sufficiently understood.
Accessibility support
This rule has no known accessibility support concerns.
