Hi Jeroen, We can briefly answer your questions about how we have implemented the video. Please note that this reply is not legal advice. We use "AblePlayer" media player. It is free, open source. Info is here: https://ableplayer.github.io/ableplayer/ That page includes steps for implementing the player. > "how does it work to integrate the transcript" That is a feature of the player. It uses the captions file. We are working on a resource on "Making Audio and Video Media Accessible". The draft-in-progress starts here: https://wai-media-guide.netlify.com/design-develop/media/ Maybe you find that helpful, or you have suggestions for improving it?

As a local government administration of the city of Antwerp we are taking alle the necessary steps to comply with this regulation. For video content with audio it is mandatory to provide both captions (with desciption of loud sounds, change of scenery, name of the speaker when a change of speaker occurs and that person is not visible in the scene) for the hearing impaired and audio description for the blind and viewers with bad eyesight. > > > On this page we saw examples of how to provide a transcipt, audodescription, captions and so on > > https://www.w3.org/WAI/perspective-videos/captions/ > > > Can you provide information on the technology that was used on this page to achieve this: how do you link audiodesciption-button (and functionality) to the embedded YouTube-video, which video-player is being used and how does it work to integrate the transcript and so on. > > > Looking forward to receive your answer > > > Kind greetings > > > Jeroen > > > *Jeroen Collier | huisstijlexpert* > **stad Antwerpen | ondernemen en stadsmarketing > Francis Wellesplein 1, 2018 Antwerpen > ✉ Grote Markt 1, 2000 Antwerpen > gsm +32 498 68 48 14 | tel. +32 3 338 37 77 > www.antwerpen.be <https://www.antwerpen.be/> > <https://www.antwerpen.be/> > <https://www.antwerpen.be/>facebook <https://www.facebook.com/stadantwerpen> | twitter <https://www.twitter.com/stad_antwerpen> | instagram <https://www.instagram.com/stad_antwerpen> | linkedin <https://www.linkedin.com/company/stad-antwerpen> > *Proclaimer* > Vergissen is menselijk.
