## Features

Extended Audio Description is a service that pauses the video to allow for longer descriptions when there is not enough space to sufficiently describe the visuals in your video.

“Extended Audio Description“ is a type of audio description that is suitable for videos that have few natural pauses, but that contains a lot of visual content.

“Extended Audio Description“ workflow → when a user press play, the video, and description begin playing. Then, the source video pauses temporarily, while the description continues. After that portion of the description is complete, the video resumes playing again
