Adding Accessibility Warnings/Alerts to Videos

edited March 17 in Use Cases

We are trying to integrate more accessibility features on our platform and would like the option to add warnings and alerts to videos, for example:

"This video may contain light patterns or images that could trigger seizures or cause discomfort for people with visual sensitivities."

Is this currently possible? I looked through the settings and I didn't see any relevant ones that would apply here. If it's not possible, can this be added as a feature request?

Thank you.

    Hey Addy!

    Right now, we do not have a specific toggle to label certain videos with that sort of messaging. So, I've created a new feature request called "Toggle photosensitivity warning" and added your organization to that. Our team will consider this idea as we plan for future releases.

    In the meantime, you could create a very short video that displays this message for a few seconds. Then, using the Insert Clip option in the editor, any video that is applicable can add this clip to the start of their video.
