Hi all,
The DRC's videos are done using a Flash front-end.
Quite liked the method and currently recommending it.

Subject: Re: [WSG] accessible audio-visual content
Vicki,
If QuickTime is acceptable as a delivery medium, you can either:
1. incorporate "closed captioning" via a text track or
2. play images (or Flash) of text within the audio/video window.
(Either in its own space or over the top of a movie [Flash images are
better for the latter].)
For more info, see the QuickTime Developers page on the Apple site.

"Text Tracks" tutorial)
-Hugh Todd
The only tool you would need for this would be QuickTime Pro, available
(as a key to unlock its powers) online from Apple.
