Addressing issue #2479: add note that if not enough pauses for AD, then authors MUST fall back on alternative or FAIL#2517
Conversation
Added language to clarify that The language of the success criterion is an OR statement between the requirement for an alternative for time-based media OR an audio description. Therefore, if an audio description cannot be provided because there are insufficient spaces in the dialog to insert the Audio Description, then an alternative for time-based media would be required.

@DavidMacDonald (and @PICARDBRB) — FWIW I don't agree with the conclusion that I would be happy to defer to AGWG consensus.

Please replace "required" with "necessary for good accessibility" or similar. I don't agree that "required" is correct.

in the context of the "other" debate we've been having about videos that don't have sufficient pauses for AD ... this may still be relevant. retracting my thumbs-down, but this may be ground already covered by other more recent PRs that try to more fundamentally address the problem (but have been mired in lengthy discussions) #4460 this PR may be superseded by #1790 if that gets accepted/merged |
