Is Accessibility addressed in the JW Player product ? For example, if there are accessibility errors found, as a result of accessibilty scanning tools (e.g. GSA's PULSE - https://staging.pulse.cio.gov/accessibility/agencies/), how are the errors corrected in the product to comply with WCAG 2.0 Level AA requirements (see: http://buyaccessible.gov/content/build/website-accessibility-improvement/WCAG-conformance)?
Hi Bernie,
We currently don’t offer WCAG compliance, however I do know that making the player more accessible is on our roadmap.

Donni,
Do you have a tentative timeframe for making JW Player WCAG compliant on your roadmap?
Thanks again,
Bernie
Not at this time.
