Description
## ACT rules requiring media playback
These 12 ACT rules require audio/video playback capabilities which a DOM-only scanner cannot provide.
| ACT Rule | Name |
|---|---|
| `1a02b0` | Audio and visuals of video element have transcript |
| `1ea59c` | Video element visual content has audio description |
| `1ec09b` | Video element visual content has strict accessible alternative |
| `4c31df` | Audio or video element that plays automatically has a control mechanism |
| `aaa1bf` | Audio or video element that plays automatically has no audio > 3 seconds |
| `c3232f` | Video element visual-only content has accessible alternative |
| `c5a4ea` | Video element visual content has accessible alternative |
| `d7ba54` | Video element visual-only content has audio track alternative |
| `e7aa44` | Audio element content has text alternative |
| `ee13b5` | Video element visual-only content has transcript |
| `efbfc7` | Text content that changes automatically can be paused/stopped/hidden |
| `f51b46` | Video element auditory content has captions |
## Blocker
These rules require actually playing media to determine if transcripts, captions, or audio descriptions exist. A DOM-only scanner can at most check for the presence of `` elements but cannot verify content quality.
