@nigelmegitt I think this is very useful addition - I've added it to the section on Caption rate, as an Editors note. https://raw.githack.com/w3c/apa/main/saur/index.html @jasonjgw
Thanks @RealJoshue108 - I am sure there are a great many research questions that haven't been either asked well, or studied, in this area.
There sure are - any other items that you'd like to discuss do ping, post issues or join calls. Interestingly, the conclusion of this paper is that:
It is clear from these results that for the section of the population with hearing difficulties who use subtitles alongside sound to watch television, any reduction in the delay of subtitles can provide a useful improvement to the quality of their viewing experience
And I think this is interesting, as it may be dependent also on the context, or purpose of the show / program the user is watching. I find myself wondering about the contexts where tolerances/delays are useful and others where they may not be.
Discussed at RQTF meeting https://www.w3.org/2021/12/08-rqtf-minutes.html can be closed
That link to minutes gives me a 404 @RealJoshue108 . Is it public-visible?
This should now be fixed, as the meeting has just ended and the minutes were generated.
Thanks, I can see it now.
BBC R&D paper https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/publications/whitepaper259 experimentally assesses the relative perception of accuracy vs latency for subtitles, which is especially pertinent to the live subtitle discussion. I'd suggest considering referencing it.
