we can also change the cursor not-allowed

Wondering whether cursor: not-allowed is overkill, since a disabled button <button type="button" disabled>Click Me!</button> only shows cursor: default instead of cursor: pointer?

cursor: pointer seems fine as well.

Thanks @OwenEdwards, looks great. |

@gkatsev would love some help in building out the unit tests, as I mention. Otherwise, I think this functionality is ready to go with these latest CSS updates. |
|
Sorry it's been a while. I should be able to help out with tests for this PR this week. |
|
Also, looks like this needs to be rebase or updated from master. |
|
I'll take a look. If I do a rebase, then it'll have to become a new PR, right? Not a big deal, just wanted to know if I'm missing something. |

You can force push if you want. Or you could merge. |
Descriptions tracks are enabled by their own Control Bar menu button, and shown like other text tracks. Display of a text track is marked as 'aria-live', so it will be read by a screen reader when it changes. A descriptions track cannot be displayed at the same time as a Subtitles or Captions track; if either of those tracks is enabled, then the Descriptions track is disabled, and the menu button is also disabled.
…k in the sandbox as descriptions.html.example. Track examples are in docs/examples/elephantsdream. Descriptions text track from @silviapfeiffer, Captions from https://github.com/walsh9/videojs-transcript/tree/master/captions (converted from SRT to WebVTT) Chapters text track created by @OwenEdwards.

Okay, this is rebased, simplified (fewer separate commits) and fixed to work with my other PR. Just needs some work on the tests, then it's ready to go. |

not necessary for this, but we're doing a lot of attribute setting, we probably should make a helper for components so you could just do this.setAttribute('aria-disabled', 'false');

👍 That would be a good place to check that we're consistently passing 'false' or 'true' (strings) to ARIA attributes, rather than booleans, which I think causes problems.

Looks like the main missing unit test from this PR is one that checks that the descriptions button is disabled when caption or subtitle is enabled. |
…on being disabled when captions are showing.
|
@gkatsev I think this covers the tests we talked about. Can you take a look and let me know? |

should be 3 lets.
We really need to update videojs to use vjsstandard already so I won't have to keep pointing these out myself :)

@OwenEdwards thanks! Looks good. Just some stylistic issues left :) |
|
@gkatsev think that does it! |
|
Awesome. LGTM! |
|
@gkatsev realized that I needed to add some strings into en.json. Other than that, this is ready :-) |
|
Cool! |

👍 |

Kind of an aside, but does description track support work with |

@chemoish this change requires a @gkatsev, I guess we ought to document this somewhere? |
|
Yes, we need a text tracks guide doc. Also, maybe we should just always subsume descriptions into emulated mode until browsers that implementing them? We can always do that as a follow-up PR. |
Adds support for descriptions text tracks, with a separate menu button on the control bar, and display using the same mechanism as captions and subtitles. To handle the situation where a descriptions and a captions or subtitles track could be enabled at the same time, the TextTrackDisplay prefers non-descriptions tracks over descriptions tracks, and the descriptions menu button disables itself if another track is enabled.
This PR could probably use some more Unit tests to check the priority model is TextTrackDisplay, and the self-disabling in descriptions-button. Also, the CSS styling applied to the button when it is disabled (just making it 0.5 opacity) may need more work.
I'd appreciate any feedback, suggestions, etc.
