Hi Janina, all,

Janina: in today's call you were curious to find a way to have the
video frames that are shown as you navigate the video along
pre-defined navigation markers described for blind users.

We have the kind=metadata track to experiment with such ideas.

As I mentioned today: I believe this may be a use case that we could
address for html6 and also in a possible webvtt working group.

I've done a quick markup example that could be used for such an experiment.
Check out http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/HTML/wiki/Media_Chapters_with_Images

I don't suggest this is the most elegant way of solving this problem.
I am just proposing a means in which it could be done. Other ideas are
very welcome.

Cheers,
Silvia.
