Prashant sir,

would you know if the Fire tv stick is any better than the airtel
accessibility? although they have the things like google assistant
in-built, but when comes to pulling out programmes, the accessibility
goes for a toss.

Thank you,

You wouldn't get any extra benefit in terms of OTT app accessibility
with apple TV, Fire TV stick is better though.

Hello Bharat,
Amazon Fire Stick seems to be the best option for you.
Do not go for Jio Set top box. It has no accessibility feature.

Hi Bharat,
As far as screen-reader interface within apps is concerned, it depends upon 
accessibility of the app in question which will be common across platform of 
all companies using same OS. For example, Amazon's prime video is fairly 
accessible whereas it is not the same for other OTT apps. Since you want to use 
only OTT apps without paying for channels, different options are:
1. Amazon's Firestick (which uses Amazon's Fire OS)-Suggested by Ajay above 2. 
Airtel's Xtreme stick (which supports only OTT apps) unlike Airtel Xtreme box 
(which is a hybrid streaming device having both ott and
channels)
3. Jio fibre connection with settop box. It will give broadband connection with 
smart settop box (with only OTT apps without channel).
Its rental is 707/- per month for broadband+14 OTT apps (excluding prime video 
and netflix). However, its accessibility has to be ascertained by someone who 
has used it.

Hi,
I have not used apple tv device but a iPhone user. From this
experience I can say that iOS can guarantee accessibility of only
native apps and not other apps installed on it. I would also suggest
you to keep your expectations low when it comes to smart streaming
devices and smart TV. Due to the nature of content and lack of
physical keyboard, accessibility will always be lower than a laptop or
PC. You can also consider Chroma smart Tv which runs Fire OS. If
anyone has attempted to connect bluetooth keyboard with smart TV,
please comment if connecting physical keyboard improves accessibility.

 I am looking for an interface, whether, apple, android or fire stick,
 wherein i shouldn't have to pay for the channel subscriptions because
 i want to be able to watch all of the programmes via the apps & not
 through the chanels.

 also, wherein the screen reader should provide the spoken interface

 the help of screen reader & don't have to depend on any sighted
 assistance at all.

 Hope, i have been able to clarify my concerns.

Re: [AI] Most accessible setup box

2023-04-11 Thread Bharat
Hi Ajay, Harshit,

Thank you so much for your detailed mails. Would you know if Apple TV
would have accessibility all across the app interfaces?

May i also request any Jio user to share their experience regarding
the accessibility of the JIO setup box?

I did not find airtel set top box too great in terms of accessibility.
& like i said, it also trails in terms of OS updates. is Airtel stick
any different or is it something that is the same except the option to
subscribe chanels?

Sorry for too many questions, but i just want to probably pickup the
best option possible, now that i made up my mind to do away with the
existing setup.

Thank you,

Bharat.

Re: [AI] Most accessible setup box

2023-04-11 Thread Harshit Lohia
Hi Bharat,
As far as screen-reader interface within apps is concerned, it depends
upon accessibility of the app in question which will be common across
platform of all companies using same OS. For example, Amazon's prime
video is fairly accessible whereas it is not the same for other OTT
apps. Since you want to use only OTT apps without paying for channels,
different options are:
1. Amazon's Firestick (which uses Amazon's Fire OS)-Suggested by Ajay above
2. Airtel's Xtreme stick (which supports only OTT apps) unlike Airtel
Xtreme box (which is a hybrid streaming device having both ott and
channels)
3. Jio fibre connection with settop box. It will give broadband
connection with smart settop box (with only OTT apps without channel).
Its rental is 707/- per month for broadband+14 OTT apps (excluding
prime video and netflix). However, its accessibility has to be
ascertained by someone who has used it.

Fire TV stick is perfect for this use-case.
Apple TV is too overpriced.
Fire TV stick has a separate tab where all the live tv channels are
grouped from the apps you have subscribed to.
Tip: wait for an Amazon sale and buy the tv stick 4k max version. you
will get a very good deal.

secondly, they haven't updated the OS of the setup box whereas google

also, wherein the screen reader should provide the spoken interface

Re: [AI] Most accessible setup box

2023-04-09 Thread Vikas Kapoor
In my personal opinion, changing the services just for the sake of
accessibility does not sound to be a very promising gesture, for you
never know what today is most accessible might turn out to be
completely inaccessible tomorrow. In today's fast changing technology,
what becomes accessible and what turns out to be inaccessible
sometimes appears very accidental and sometimes it appears a very
routine matter.

Bharat If your decision is to move out due to accessibility reasons then please 
do share your inputs off the list. At Mission Accessibility (an initiative I 
run with my co-founder Rahul Bajaj to solve for digital inaccessibility) have 
taken cognisance of this issue. 9892622230. Thank you.
