This is a submission to the W4A 2009 Web accessibility conference (http://www.w4a.info/ ). In the video, we explain the current status of video accessibility on the Web and means forward for HTML5. We propose a solution for associating textual captions with video and explain it on the example of Ogg Kate, SRT and DFXP. We then explain further challenges such as Sign Language, Audio Annotations, and more general types of time-aligned text, e.g. Karaoke, music lyrics, ticker-text, transcripts, or annotations with hyperlinks.

Beyond HTML5 Video

Posted in External Videos by silvia on the February 22nd, 2009

Short 2:30min long video presented as a lightning talk at TPAC 2008 to make a case for making more out of the HTML5 video element. It demonstrates Metavid and its wiki-style editing functionality of transcripts. It further shows the use of the transcript to navigate and search in long-form video. Exposing the structure and content of video to the User Agent and the Server enables video accessibility, content adaptation, and deep search. The video also indicates links to the W3C Media Fragments working group, the W3C Timed Text working group, and the W3C Media Annotations working group.
