Make your media accessible
When creating videos for public viewing, the requirements of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) must be met.
The video must be accompanied by captions and a transcript detailing additional information (e.g. actions, scene changes) along with the captions. If you do not have a seperate transcipt, MyMedia will default to show your caption file in lieu of a dedicated transcript text track.
View all available options in the Media Tracks section.
For more information and resources on caption creation see:
- Web Content Accessibility Guidelines for time-based media
- OCUL Report on Accessible Media. Appendix F – Best Practices – includes a list of captioning tools
