Línea de trabajo

Start by tracing the media viewer’s player controls and the three-dot menu where the caption toggle currently lives; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Compare how play, pause, and volume are exposed, then identify a way for captions to be reachable at the same interaction level. Done when the caption toggle is directly available alongside the primary controls and the change is checked with a video that has a .vtt transcript.

Descripción

accessibility bug component: viewer help wanted

Describe the bug

The caption on/off control is located within a secondary menu accessed through the player's three-dot menu, whereas primary media controls (play, pause, and volume) are directly accessible on the player. Activating captions therefore requires an additional interaction step compared with using the primary controls. Consider making the caption control directly accessible at the same interaction level as the primary media controls.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Upload a video along with a transcript (.vtt) to enable captions
  2. Click on three-dot menu to access caption toggle (on/off)

Expected behavior

The caption toggle should be at the same level of interaction as the primary controls, such as play, pause, and volume control.
