English

Subject field(s)
  • Technical Aids for Persons with Disabilities
  • Hearing
CONT

Extended audio description temporarily pauses the audio and video to allow critical information to be delivered when pauses in dialogue are insufficient for adequate description.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Aides techniques pour personnes handicapées
  • Ouïe
CONT

Parfois, les pauses entre les dialogues et les effets sonores sont trop brèves pour permettre de décrire la scène à l'écran. L'audiodescription étendue consiste donc à interrompre la vidéo pour laisser le temps de fournir une description plus détaillée. La lecture vidéo reprend dès que la description est terminée.
