Hi Catherine,
Somehow, I missed your response to my question until just now. Yes, I was referring to Yuja Panorama and am grateful to hear your thoughts on the demo you received.

Hi Monica,
I am assuming you mean the Yuja Panorama tool rather than the Yuja video management platform.
Our Colorado AT group recently had an extensive presentation on Panorama and I was quite impressed. I was even more impressed by flexibility it offered and the manner in which our feedback was valued.
The Panorama product is new and does more than Ally does – it offers student side support for access to alternate formats of course materials as well as the ability to customize the priority of accessibility issues and overall evaluation tools.
I am not working with either tool currently but from what I have seen, I would be requesting demo sessions if I was in the market for such a tool. From the short interaction with the product team, I believe it will continue to develop and improve its already very useful features.

For those of you using Yuja, I'm curious how you think this product compares to Ally by Blackboard if folks have used that tool. Thanks!

I teach a course for UCSC which uses both Canvas LMS and YuJa. (UCSC previously used Kaltura.) The Colorado CC System also uses YuJa.

Hi Lucy and all ATHEN!
I am doing a video player review over the next couple of weeks to present at AHG. I was thinking maybe it wasn't necessary but it seems (unfortunately) that it is. Other than YouTube, what video players would you like me to review?
Cheers
Gian

hello everyone:
for over 4 years now youtube has had a feature to let creators add descriptive video to youtube videos. when i asked for access to this feature for our campus this is what they sent me
"
YouTube has a pilot program to give participating creators the ability to add audio tracks containing audio descriptions to their videos. On enabled videos, selecting the gear icon and choosing the "descriptive" audio track plays the audio track designated as descriptive audio - a format that is intended to give audio context for essential visual information. The purpose of the pilot is to better understand the unique needs of our users and how to create features to help reach broader audiences."
This is making me very angry as I know the feature has been out for over
3 and maybe 4 years now as I first saw it in 2018 or 2019 on a video game trailer.
Since then I have seen it on a few other video game trailers but never on any other youtube channels.
If we in education can't get access to the features we need to help our students and extended communities, how can more people learn about accessibility and how to do it right
Here is my call to action. your campuses should also join me in asking google to get your team's access to the feature now so that we can learn how to use it and teach about how to always make videos more accessible to everyone
