Universal Subtitles Accessibility Review

[Colin Clark]

This review looks awesome. One question, after reading the notes: what type of video were you captioning? A YouTube video, or from Vimeo, or in H.264/WebM player? I'm thinking it's worth making note of that, and also trying a few different formats to see how they compare. I'm guessing the video player being used will have an impact on the overall experience. For example, your note about the video being a focus trap in Firefox makes me think you were probably testing with a Flash-based player of some kind, since this is an inherent problem with Flash on non-IE browsers.

It sounds to me like several of your observations could be pretty straightforward to fix. Is now a good time to start working Dean, Craig and others to get some patches in?
