Re: webtv-ACTION-261: draft a proposal for the IG to confirm a desire for HTML and CSS to support TTML playback

Hi Nigel et al.,

Great. My input below.

> 1. The Media and Entertainment Interest Group recognises that playback of TTML subtitles and captions needs to be supported by the web platform as a whole.

I would list the formats and ecosystems that the IG has identified as
having adopted profiles of TTML in general, and IMSC in particular.

I would also emphasize the web platform being a key authoring and
playback for these formats and ecosystems.

Formats and ecosystem I can think of include:

HbbTV
MPEG CMAF
SMPTE IMF
SMPTE-TT
EBU-TT-D
ARIB
CTA WAVE
DVB

Best,

-- Pierre

The playback of TTML subtitles and captions on the web platform requires a CSS mapping for all the presentation features for which support is needed in the IMSC profiles of TTML, i.e. that for any given style attribute value permitted in IMSC there is an equivalent set of CSS property values that can be applied to equivalent HTML elements to achieve the same semantics.
