  2. If an audio description is present, check
    • that it is relevant (all the important visual information is present);
    • and that it is correctly synchronised (the audio description soundtrack coincides correctly with the video).
  3. If a text transcript is present, check
    • that it is relevant (all important audio or visual information is present, including dialogue and embedded text).
  4. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
