What if someone actually took upon themselves the effort to describe a video with a timestamped/timecoded combination of visual description, spoken word transcript and non-spoken word audio description? Especially if the visual description is on the same high level of detail that's expected in the Fediverse?

Jupiter Rowland@<a href="https://mastodon.radio/@M0YNG" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Christopher M0YNG</a> Just out of curiosity: What would be an appropriate textual description for a video? A description of what the video is about? Or a detailed, time-coded description of the actual visuals throughout the whole video plus a detailed, time-coded transcript of the audio in the video? If the latter, what details are required, regardless of topic and content?

PaulaToThePeopleThird and last report about media description statistics on this server.Since the last time 58% of media posts had decent media descriptions, as far as I'm concerned.In total I checked 1247 media posts since October 23 and 776 posts (62%) had adequate captions.<a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/captions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#captions</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/MediaDescriptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MediaDescriptions</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/AltText" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AltText</a>

Jupiter Rowland@<a href="https://tweesecake.social/@weirdwriter" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Robert Kingett, blind</a> I don't trust anything generated. At least not with super-obscure niche content like what I post. And audio descriptions in general are why I'll never publish videos in the Fediverse. I'd have to go into similar detail as for my pictures, only for moving pictures plus sound plus voice-over now. My descriptions would have to be so detailed that the video would have to pause to let the audio description catch up with the visuals. In fact, the video would spend more time paused while the audio description is rambling than actually moving, and it would never spend more than a few seconds moving at a time. For one, I would have to describe and explain what the video shows at the very same level of detailed as I describe my images. And at least once I've described one single image at such a level of detail that it'd probably take a screen reader one full hour to read the image description aloud. Besides, I would have take into account that it's a video. Everything would need timestamps. And instead of only describing the camera position and the camera angle, I would have to describe the camera movements like so: Seven minutes, eighteen point one three seconds. The camera quickly rotates to the left around a vertical axis through a point roughly two point four metres straight ahead of the avatar. It starts rotating from the direction in which the avatar is facing, roughly twelve degrees to the east of north. The barn which has first appeared at five minutes, fifty-two point two eight seconds comes into view again, including all decoration around it. The camera only rotates around this vertical axis and not around any horizontal axis. The avatar does not rotate with the camera. Seven minutes, eighteen point six four seconds: The video pauses to let this description catch up. Seven minutes, eighteen point seven one seconds: The video no longer pauses. The camera reaches a rotation angle of roughly twenty degrees to the south of west. The rotation speed of the camera slows down. It continues to rotate to the left. Seven minutes, eighteen point nine three seconds: The video pauses to let this description catch up. Seven minutes, nineteen point zero four seconds: The video no longer pauses. The camera stops rotating at an angle of roughly twenty-five degrees to the west of south. That is, in order to cater to deaf-blind users, I would have to have two time codes. One, the time code of the original video, not taking the pauses into account. Two, the time code of the described video with catch-up pauses. And the video with catch-up pauses would be dramatically longer than the original video. Ten minutes of video would take me weeks to describe, probably over a month. And it would end up many hours long, depending on how much there is to describe and explain. So a time code in the Braille description for deaf-blind users might actually read, "Six minutes, thirty-seven point five five seconds in the original video, fourteen hours, three minutes, forty-nine point two one seconds in this described version of the video." By the way, no, an AI can't do that. #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Long" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=LongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLong" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLong</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MediaDescription" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MediaDescription</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MediaDescriptions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MediaDescriptions</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=AudioDescription" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AudioDescription</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=AudioDescriptions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AudioDescriptions</a>

Jupiter Rowland@<a href="https://cutie.city/@OctaviaConAmore" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Octavia con Amore :pink_moon_and_stars:</a> Such transcripts don't go into alt-text. I mean, into the alt-text of what should they even go? They go into the post itself, of course. At least I hope that there's enough room for that on Funkwhale and/or Castopod. And nobody would host a podcast on Mastodon which, except for Threads, is the only Fediverse project with a 500-character limit. As for my image descriptions, as I've said, these monsters go into the post text body. Right where you have a 500-character limit, and I don't have any limit whatsoever at all. The three links in my previous comment should demonstrate how I do it. It isn't very accessible to have blind or visually-impaired users open a separate webpage just to have an image described, especially if they're on a phone, and they have the post with the image in one app (their Mastodon app) and the description in another (their browser). It's always best to have the image and the description in the same place. #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Long" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=LongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLong" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLong</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=AltText" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AltText</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=ImageDescription" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ImageDescription</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=ImageDescriptions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ImageDescriptions</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=ImageDescriptionMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ImageDescriptionMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWImageDescriptionMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWImageDescriptionMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Transcript" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Transcript</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Transcripts" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Transcripts</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MediaDescription" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MediaDescription</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MediaDescriptions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MediaDescriptions</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Accessibility" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Accessibility</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=A11y" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A11y</a>

Jupiter Rowland@<a href="https://cutie.city/@OctaviaConAmore" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Octavia con Amore :pink_moon_and_stars:</a> I'm serious in everything. When I said I write extremely long image description, <a href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/item/136f021c-06cb-4e38-abe6-2bf37fd521d8" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">I was</a> <a href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/item/8c2b4728-dda5-498b-9f84-2f11e163a4a5" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">absolutely</a> <a href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/item/c8a14063-b4e2-48fa-baf9-cb4faef7225b" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">serious</a>. And just like visuals need to be described for non-sighted people, audio needs to be described for people without or with impaired hearing. At least, pure spoken word audio needs verbatim transcripts. But I'm pretty sure there are people in the Fediverse who demand written descriptions for all audio in the Fediverse. #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Long" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=LongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLong" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLong</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=AltText" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AltText</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=ImageDescription" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ImageDescription</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=ImageDescriptions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ImageDescriptions</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=ImageDescriptionMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ImageDescriptionMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWImageDescriptionMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWImageDescriptionMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Transcript" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Transcript</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Transcripts" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Transcripts</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MediaDescription" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MediaDescription</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MediaDescriptions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MediaDescriptions</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Accessibility" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Accessibility</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=A11y" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A11y</a>

Aran FielderSo I upload art, but I understand the need for media descriptions. The problem is I often don't have the spoons / capabilities to create an explanation that is clear and makes sense. Particularly if I'm especially manic/disocciated/overwhelmed/fatigued etc.Does anyone have any tips to make this easier? I don't wish to alienate a whole section of people because of this but also don't wanna keep putting it off if there are solutions. <a href="https://masto.aranfielder.art/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Accessibility</a> <a href="https://masto.aranfielder.art/tags/MediaDescriptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MediaDescriptions</a> <a href="https://masto.aranfielder.art/tags/AltText" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AltText</a> <a href="https://masto.aranfielder.art/tags/Help" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Help</a> <a href="https://masto.aranfielder.art/tags/MastoHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastoHelp</a>

FiXatoPerhaps it's more of a <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/FedilabFeatureRequest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FedilabFeatureRequest</a>, but personally I consider it a <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/FedilabBug" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FedilabBug</a> instead: Image / media descriptions are not visible till media have finished loading. This hurts accessibility, especially on slow/intermittent connections, particularly when the post body doesn't give a clear description of what the image is about, and I thus don't know if I want to waste the bandwidth and time on actually loading the media.Ideally I'd already see the description as a placeholder for the thumbnail.<a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ImageDescriptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ImageDescriptions</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/MediaDescriptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MediaDescriptions</a> cc @apps@apps@toot.fedilab.app

Again, I don't care, but you don't get to take the bible and tell me, well, the bible says this in this chapter and this verse. I don't care, I don't care, I don't believe in it and I have the right, based on our constitution to not believe in it.»</blockquote><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/DescribedMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DescribedMedia</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/MediaDescriptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MediaDescriptions</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/RoeVsWade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RoeVsWade</a>
