Sorry to hijack this thread but SF won't let me create new threads for some reason unknown. I can reply to existing threads but not create new ones. Weird. Anyway...


I don't think there's currently an attribute in the DTD for programmes which are 'audio-described'.

"Audio description is additional commentary that explains what's happening on screen. It describes body language, expressions and movements, making the programme clear through sound."

There are quite a number of these programmes (mostly reality shows, dramas, and similar) and the absence of this tag is a hole we ought to fill.

If you agree to add this attribute, should this go on 'subtitles' or 'audio' element? I would suggest subtitles:
    subtitles  type="audio-described"

Your thoughts please?

Rgds,
Geoff
