7.1.3 Preservation of captioning | Supports | Captioning information, if present, is inherently lost in transmission from the remote desktop to the Guacamole server, however the captions themselves are still graphically forwarded (just like any other content within the remote desktop session). |
7.2.1 Audio description playback | Does Not Support | Audio descriptions are not provided for videos which accompany the Glyptodon Enterprise documentation. |
7.2.2 Audio description synchronization | Does Not Support | Audio descriptions are not provided for videos which accompany the Glyptodon Enterprise documentation. |
