A fair enough question and also the most important issue to worry about with this. I think it does need to be part of the visual presentation and I think the controls are the right place - in addition to the context menu. I can imagine either a special button, but with tight real estate in controls, it could also be in a menu. Since this can be the ultimate fallback for when no video is shown, HTML5-conformant text-only browsers could also display the link to the transcript in place of the video/audio element, making it useful beyond just accessibility. I'm curious what browser developers think about it. Would they (in particular their video controls designers) implement it? Could somebody come up with a nicely designed video control that includes such a button to show that it can be done without cluttering the UI? -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
