Hi David - did you ever get a solution for the ALT text?
Hi Zena,
Happy to help!
There currently isn't an option to disable the Player tooltips. These were added to meet WCAG accessibility criteria and there isn't a built-in way to hide them from learners. If you would like to remove the Player tooltips, you can use any of the following workarounds:
- Downgrade your installation to a version released before November 2023
- Use the Javascript solution shared by a community member here
I'll add your voice to an open feature request that we have for the addition of an option to disable the tooltips. We'll let you know as soon as it makes it to our product roadmap!
Thank you! I used the Javascript solution and it worked perfectly.
