Ignoring a11y. Does second screen mean separating audio, video, caption streams? 17:19:46 JF: Discussed on MAUR. It is simply a second screen, sending streamed content to the device 17:19:58 ... refreshable braille output device distracts from the fundamental question 17:20:23 ... which is, when sending content to a Second Screen, the supplemental pieces (caption) can be furnished in-band or out of band 17:20:27 q+ 17:20:36 ... out of band should be sent with the child construct of, "track" 17:21:06 ... this ensures the second screen(tablet, watch, telephone) will have the responsiblity to provide the AT support 17:21:37 ... Consider a dumb terminal without a speaker-- it will lack the ability to drive audio 17:22:30 ... the second screen is never in the control (aka master) role. e.g., only the primary device can hit pause, which controls the media stream 17:23:04 ... APA could insist that the second screen must support assistive technologies 17:23:15 ack janina 17:23:16 becky: This is about chartering 17:23:29 janina: The charter can enforce that they are defining an API 17:23:42 ... we are still clarifying what they can and cannot achieve 17:24:35 JF: The issue seems to be output vs input. the second screen can process the stream regardless of the primary device 17:24:51 q+ 17:25:05 ... make sure the second screen is not constrained in any way 17:25:49 Q+ 17:25:52 ack Lionel_Wolberger 17:27:33 ack JF 17:27:41 q+ 17:28:19 Lionel_Wolberger: It seemed that some people hinted that the second screen has all capabilities. We want to be sure that the second screen can consume the API properly, and then render whatever it is a capable of rendering, including any AT-oriented information 17:28:39 q+ 17:28:53 JF: Yes, that is the intention. The Second Screen API should ensure that all the relevant HTML is sent to the second screen including any anciallry data, 17:29:01 ... particularly a11y information 17:29:13 ack janina 17:29:16 ... must remain intact so that if the second screen *can* render, it will 17:29:50 janina: For example, the Bluetooth Speaker may be selected (by the user) to only receive the audio descriptions 17:30:03 ... this relies on a good definition of the controller 17:30:08 q? 17:30:21 JF: Two use cases 17:30:24 q+ 17:30:36 ... (1) the controller is a selector, determining what the second screen renders 17:30:49 Q+ 17:30:49 ... (2) the secondary device has all information 17:31:37 becky: Main receiver is the controller, implies that the second screen has an API that can be queried, and respond with a list of the services that are supported 17:31:48 ack becky 17:31:48 ack bec 17:31:52 janina: A dumb braille display cannot. Other devices can. 17:31:53 ack josh 17:32:29 Joshue108: Second screen may not be able to be a completely dumb device. 17:32:38 q+ 17:32:41 ... an API to mediate the choices sounds important 17:32:50 ack JF 17:33:28 JF: Their response was centered on a dumb device. What I seek is more clarification when the second screen is a *smart* device 17:33:49 ... which can help the end-user make selections 17:33:55 ack janina 17:34:21 janina: The response also said Second Screen APi would not support a text stream. This is a problem, as captions are always a text streem 17:34:42 JF: Text output does not imply that it will be a text stream. It may be transmitted in MP4 wrapper 17:34:42 zakim, agenda? 17:34:42 I see 7 items remaining on the agenda: 17:34:43 3.
