Hi,

So far it was with the Marvel Series. Didn’t get it with House of Cards.

For now, I guess, it will be a matter of trying titles we select. 
Hopefully the number of descriptive titles will grow…

Hi,

Good news from the Canadian perspective. Just tried NetFlix again and I 
got the descriptive audio. It’s working now on both my iPhone and Apple 
TV.


So, something good to have….

Hi,

I am not finding that NetFlix is working here in Canada. I have 
heard David Woodbridge’s two podcasts and read a few other ways to 
get the set up going. Have done all the suggested things and I am 
not getting descriptive audio here in Canada. NetFlix have not

So, for now, I have to believe that this feature is only available

A simple Google search verifies the statement regarding Netflix

U.S. and Canada at this point.

David Woodbridge did a great tutorial on AppleVis today and I

Re: [Mac-access]: Some Apple news

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

Mind you that it only works on certain shows/movies.  You can't expect 
everything to have audio description.  Further, if you were using the same 
TV show on Netflix that David used, be warned.  The first eppisode of that 
series doesn't have description for some reason.  The second episode I think 
called Cut Man does though.  I'm not in Canada, I'm in the states, so it 
could! be a licensing patton thing, but I doubt it.


So yeah, try it with the second episode of that series, and see if it works.

Chris.

Hi,

I am not finding that NetFlix is working here in Canada. I have heard 
David Woodbridge’s two podcasts and read a few other ways to get the set 
up going. Have done all the suggested things and I am not getting 
descriptive audio here in Canada. NetFlix have not responded to my e-mail…


So, for now, I have to believe that this feature is only available in the 
U.S…..


Would be interested to find out what others get in the next day or so….

A simple Google search verifies the statement regarding Netflix though 
it would appear that Audio Description is restricted to the U.S. and 
Canada at this point.

Hi all,

which dad has allowed me to consider. The first is an Apple TV 
which is a small media streaming box that is connected to your TV 
and allows you to stream anything from media stored in iTunes 
either for PC or Mac to TV shows and movies either purchased from 
the iTunes Store or streamed from a service like Netflix which as 
of yesterday is now providing audio description. The device costs 
£99.00 UK but extra charges may apply especially if you subscribe 
to services like Netflix which is £6.00/month UK. The second 
product to be considered is the Apple Watch. Dad is hinting I can 
do allsorts from my writs without getting my phone out of my 
pocket. But like I told him it is only compatible with the iPhone 5 
and later so this will definitely be a future purchase whereas the 
Apple TV is a near future purchase. He sounds really excited that 
they both talk. If anyone has an Apple TV please tell me what you 
think of it. Thank you in advance! Both products were discussed 
during our pints this afternoon.

I would hurt! anyone who touches my Apple TV.  LOL!  Just kidding. 
Seriously though, I have mine going through my high def Yamaha 5.1 surround 
sound receiver, and God do I love it!  Probably one of the best investments 
I've ever made!  I can't wait! to hear what Apple does with the new Apple 
TV.  Do we even have rumor speculations of some of the improvements, even if 
they are not really official?

The current AppleTV model has been out for a few years, and a new one is 
expected to be released in late June or early July. No doubt, it will be 
more expensive, but it may have features that you can't live without, or 
make the current model drop even more.


I love my AppleTV, and have it connected via an optical cable to my stereo 
system. It is easy to use it with its remote or via the iPhone. There is 
no reason to have it connected to a television, if you cannot see the 
screen. VoiceOver is on by default, but, is difficult to turn on, if it is 
turned off at the beginning. At least, without sight, it is difficult to 
get it back, if it is bypassed at the beginning.  Diane Bomar

Re: [Mac-access]: Some Apple news

[Leo Bissonnette]

Hi,

As a follow up on the Apple TV and NetFlicks, can anyone confirm its 
availability in Canada….

David Woodbridge did a great tutorial on AppleVis today and I followed it 
through. Sadly—unless I missed a step in his instructions, I have the feeling 
that Canada is not making audio descriptions available…. Would, as I say, 
really want to confirm this.

[Mac-access]: Some Apple news

[Christopher Hallsworth]

Hi all,
some Apple news. Some products will be purchased in the future which dad 
has allowed me to consider. The first is an Apple TV which is a small 
media streaming box that is connected to your TV and allows you to 
stream anything from media stored in iTunes either for PC or Mac to TV 
shows and movies either purchased from the iTunes Store or streamed from 
a service like Netflix which as of yesterday is now providing audio 
description. The device costs £99.00 UK but extra charges may apply 
especially if you subscribe to services like Netflix which is 
£6.00/month UK. The second product to be considered is the Apple Watch. 
Dad is hinting I can do allsorts from my writs without getting my phone 
out of my pocket. But like I told him it is only compatible with the 
iPhone 5 and later so this will definitely be a future purchase whereas 
the Apple TV is a near future purchase. He sounds really excited that 
they both talk. If anyone has an Apple TV please tell me what you think 
of it. Thank you in advance! Both products were discussed during our 
pints this afternoon.
