Nick has pointed out to me that yesterday's revision of 24(d) #2 omitted
the clause that transcripts of audio descriptions can supplement, but
not replace, synchronized descriptions themselves. With that in mind,
here's a proposal for rewording 24(d) #2:
======
2) materials containing prerecorded video with concurrent audio must
provide synchronized audio descriptions and may offer a transcript in
addition to, but not in place of, the descriptions, to convey the
informational content of the video.
======
For the sake of comparison, here's what we say about *captions* in 24(c) #2:
======
2) materials containing prerecorded video with concurrent audio must
provide synchronized captions and may offer a transcript in addition
to, but not in place of, the captions.
======
Thoughts?
Geoff.
