Principle 1 Perceivable · Guideline 1.2: Time-based Media
1.2.1 Audio-only and Video-only (Prerecorded)
Audio-only needs a transcript; video without sound needs a description.
What this means in practice
A podcast needs a full transcript on the same page. A silent video – an animation, say – needs a text version or a spoken description of what is shown.
What Wave Access contributes
Transkripte gehören zum Leistungsumfang „Untertitel & Audiodeskription“ von Wave Tools.
Normative wording
The binding text lives at the W3C. What you read here is our own faithful rendering – not a quotation.
