Official methodology to test criterion 3.16

Test 1 (3.16)

iOS and Android
  1. Identify the functions used to transmit, convert or record synchronised time-based media. For example: send content to another device or by e-mail, convert a video in .avi format into an .mpg format, record a video from a broadcast platform onto a personal computer.
  2. Execute each function (transmit, convert and record).
  3. For each of these functions, check that audio description:
    • is present;
    • can be activated;
    • is correctly synchronised:
      • the sounds and words of the audio description do not overlap with those of the original soundtrack and do not cause perception and comprehension problems;
      • the information conveyed in the audio description is given at the same time as the equivalent visual information appears.
  4. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
