Media Player Accessibility Features

Captions and audio descriptions in audio and video do not always appear by default. Each different player has settings to allow the user to turn captions and other accessibility features on or off. Some players offer developers additional capabilities to create interface element to turn accessibility features on, but this document only describes built-in player features. Any examples on this site that employ other techniques will be documented with the example.
