Description
@nigelmegitt - audio in the case of dub/vo, but for AD, the video is the important association!
Not sure if you have considered 'Extended AD' - where the AD presentation of the original media may cause the original media to pause at certain points for the AD to complete before playing again.
https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/G8.html#:~:text=Extended%20audio%20description%20temporarily%20pauses,are%20insufficient%20for%20adequate%20description.
If not, then it's probably a DAPT wishlist item, as I'm not aware of good examples of preparing such a thing at the moment.
It's not something we've implemented yet - A method of representing it is evading me so far (although I've not thought too hard yet).
