Open, position, and recover an ASL interpreter view alongside captions.

Best for: Event producers, display operators, accessibility leads, broadcast/AV engineers, web teams, and authorized remote operators.

Before you start

Availability depends on event access, plan entitlements, destination enablement, language configuration, and supported browser/display/network behavior.

  • Use the correct event and final source/target language configuration.
  • Know the physical or web destination, resolution, audience, privacy level, and monitoring owner.
  • Test the final receiving screen, embed, graphics path, or operator device—not only the setup preview.

Step by step

  1. Confirm ASL is enabled/live. The event must provide public ASL output.
  2. Open ASL or PiP. Use the viewer control/destination.
  3. Position and size. Keep hands, face, and captions visible.
  4. Choose caption language. Verify text and interpreter view correspond to the event.
  5. Test orientation/fullscreen. Inspect phone and desktop.
  6. Monitor freshness. Video and captions should continue; brief timing differences may occur.
  7. Recover. Close/reopen PiP, check network, and reload the official viewer if necessary.

What success looks like: The intended audience or operator receives the correct event, language, styling, and control level with a documented reconnect and fallback path.

Check your setup

  • The viewer sees the intended interpreter and captions without one obscuring the other.

Troubleshooting

ASL control absent

Check event entitlement/enablement and whether ASL Program is live.

Video frozen

Check network and ASL egress, then reload/reopen.

PiP covers text

Resize/reposition or use separate ASL destination.

Security and operational notes

  • ASL Program is separate from private stage.
  • Do not record/share interpreter video without authorization.
  • Use the organizer’s official output.
