Accessibility with Jellyfin - WuZiMu - 2024-03-10
I'm sorry if this has been flagged up before or I'm posting to the wrong place, I'm new to the forum and find the website a little hard to navigate and use with a screen reader. This can be resolved with heading tags (h1/h2.h3) on the main subject of the website, or on every post comment on the forum, which will make it easier for readers to navigate.
Currently only this part has a heading level 3 (h3 tag) for some reason: Jellyfin
The Free Software Media System
The iOS app is mainly accessible, but the main issue is the video player.
VoiceOver (iOS screen reader) focuses on Sync Play and nothing not the video player itself so when I double-tap it will open the Sync Play options and not the media controls, so I turn off VO to achieved this; however the controls goes away too quick.
Please take a look at link to screen recording of player issue., apologies for the buffer, that's what I get for storing my media on Google Drive
I have MKV files which has an audio description track, that i like to select, as well as normal play/jumping forward.
Swiftfin on tvOS
A lot of my titles are not being read out, I'm not sure what is causing this, I'm happy to troubleshoot this with the developer as I know this isn't an official Jellyfin app.
Here is a recording of VoiceOver with Swiftfin on tvOS
I hope what I written makes sense, I really like JF and want to make the app accessible to everyone!
Thank you for reading and watching.

I can only really speak to the forum, but that's a good idea. I just did some experimenting and I think it would be fairly easy to change the thread subjects (in the thread view page) to an h3 tag (EDIT: This is done). I'm not sure about comments though since those don't really have a header per se, or anything else - we're using a 3rd party theme that we've slowly hacked up and it's not particularly receptive to changes.

Brilliant, this works!
Thank you for adding that so promptly, it's amazing how a little feature like that makes the expereince better.
