Hi All,

I hope you're having a great Monday! I have a quick question about video accessibility. I wanted to check if you have any recommendations for making only videos accessible. According to WCAG AA guidelines, we need to provide audio descriptions or transcripts for videos only. However, I haven't seen many websites doing this for embedded videos on their homepages. Do you have any inspiration or visual designs for the best way to display many controls on an embedded video?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
Radhika
