15、IEC TS 20071-25:2017(E) Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International

16、Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO

17、 and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In parti

18、cular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives). Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements o

19、f this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see

Videos often conta

23、in text, which cannot be easily accessed by a wide section of the audience. This text includes captions/subtitles and other on-screen text that is part of the visual content. Captions/subtitles provide text alternatives to audio elements. Other on-screen text may have various functions. It can be pa

24、rt of the story, as a message written on a piece of paper by one of the characters. It can also provide additional information, such as graphs, emergency alerts or superimposed titles. Persons who, for different reasons, cannot access on-screen text will benefit from an audio presentation. This oral

25、 rendering is often part of audio description (see ISO/IEC/TS 20071-21), an access service providing a description of audiovisual content auditorily, including captions/subtitles and other on- screen text if present. However, some users may only require captions/subtitles and other on-screen text to

26、 be made accessible because they already have access to other visual content such as the images. This document provides guidance for video producers, distributors and exhibitors on the audio presentation of captions/subtitles and other on-screen text. It acknowledges the relationship with existing a

27、ccess services such as audio description. While considering current implementations, as well as future possibilities suggested by research, and bearing in mind possible trade-offs between quantity and quality, this document positions itself for situations in which various access services coexist and

28、 users are given the choice to select those best suited to their needs.

29、ons, subtitles and other on-screen text 1 Scope This document provides recommendations on the audio presentation of captions/subtitles and other on-screen text for use in all type of videos regardless of the language and technology being used to transmit and present the recorded or live video. This

30、document applies to making captions/subtitles and other on-screen text accessible to users with various needs, including but not limited to people with learning and reading disabilities, people with cognitive disabilities, people who are blind or have low vision, older people, and non-native languag

31、e speakers. It does not apply to captions/subtitles or other on-screen text whose content is already provided in the soundtrack in a language and a way users can access. This document provides guidance on spoken captions/subtitles as a stand-alone access service but it also provides guidance on how

32、to integrate spoken captions/subtitles, other spoken on-screen text and audio description, if needed, in different types of videos. NOTE 1 Extensive guidance on audio description is provided in ISO/IEC/TS 20071-21. This document does not consider the devices or transmission mechanisms used to delive

33、r and play the content or the audio presentation of text in videos. These devices include, but are not limited to televisions, computers, wireless devices, projection equipment, DVD and home cinema equipment, cinema equipment and other forms of user interfaces technology. Therefore, this document do

34、es not consider transcoding files for the various video and audio outputs. NOTE 2 Technical matters of transmission and distribution are covered by other documents (e.g. MPEG standards and other technical standards such as IEC 62731:2013). This document acknowledges the various needs and preferences

35、 of users, as well as the different approaches to the audio presentation of text in videos. It applies to audio presentations intended to be heard simultaneously along with the original video. 2 Normative references There are no normative references in this document. 3 T erms a nd definiti ons For t
