From our understanding (and authoring - we sat on the Access Board's EITAAC), we always expected that those uses are exactly what that provision was written for - so the answer to your question is yes. And it's not so hard - see may examples at ncam.wgbh.org/richmedia - Larry > Hi Everyone, > Sorry for the cross posting. I know that audio descriptions are required for > multimedia and videos under standard (1194.24) (d) "All training and > informational video and multimedia productions that support the agency's > mission, regardless of format, that contain visual information necessary for > the comprehension of the content, shall be audio described." > > Does this provision also hold true for video's that run in a web page or cd > rom > in software such as media player, quick time, etc.? > Thanks in advance. > Scott > -- Larry Goldberg, Director Media Access Group at WGBH 125 Western Ave. Boston, MA 02134 E-mail: Larry_Goldberg@WGBH.org Web: access.wgbh.org 617-300-3722 (voice) 617-300-1035 (fax) 617-300-3400 (main NCAM) 617-300-2489 (TTY)
