Accessible video is video produced and delivered so that people with hearing, vision, cognitive or motor disabilities can perceive and operate it.
Audio description is narration added to video that describes key visual information for blind and low-vision viewers during natural pauses in the dialogue.
Closed captions are a text version of a video's dialogue and meaningful sounds that viewers can switch on or off, a core tool of video accessibility.
Open captions are captions burned permanently into the video image, always visible to every viewer and independent of the player's caption support.
SDH, subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing, are subtitles that add speaker names, sound effects and music cues so viewers can follow all audio.
SubRip is the plain-text .srt subtitle format that stores numbered cues with start and end timecodes, widely used for captions and subtitles in video.
Subtitles are timed on-screen text that renders a video's dialogue, usually translated, so viewers can follow speech they cannot understand or hear.
