Using Captions

Requirements
You must have Windows media player 6.4 or greater in order to view captioning.  If you do not have Windows Media Player, you may download it from the Windows Media site.

How to view captioning with Windows Media Player
In order to view captioning, a Windows media file needs to include a SAMI (Synchronized Accessible Media Interchange) file.  Video clips on the HiSoftware site include these files by default.

Next, you need to configure Windows Media Player to show the captioning.

For Windows Media Player 7.0/7.1/8.0:

  1. Click on the Show Equalizer Settings button.  See item 1 in picture below.
  2. Cycle through the equalizer settings until the captioning text appears.  See item 2 in picture below.
  3. Captioning will appear in the block below the video.   See item 3 in picture below.

After you have the files selected, you are now ready to test.

Click on the Verify button to test the pages. If you wish to verify files and keep the results separate from future results, select Verify All as Report Group, enter in a name of your report group and click Ok.

AccVerify will test the pages, and then generate HTML reports for the results.

The results will appear in the tree in the reports view.

Accessibility reports will appear in the top, with site quality reports next, and optionally, the alt text quality reports after.

Navigate through the tree to view the reports for the files that were tested.
