Hello Sarai,

After reading your post, I immediately checked the Prime TV app on my Apple TV 
running the latest versions of both TV OS and the Prime TV app, and all of my 
purchased movies and television shows, along with titles I've recently viewed, 
are in the My Stuff area, just as expected.

So, you may want to check the status of your Amazon account.

Also, if you have not yet done so, open the Prime TV app on any other devices 
you may have such as iOS or iPad OS and take a look.

Mark

Prime and Apple TV have their own apps. Perhaps you can log into your Prime 
subscription from the TV app, but I just use the Prime video app for Prime and 
the TV app for Apple.

That makes sense now.  I don’t have the Apple TV hardware.

I’d contact both Apple Accessibility and Prime about this.

 

It sounds like something significant has changed.

This is for books which are on both audible and kindle, not kindle only. For

Hello Mont,
Yes, the audio narrators are real people, not a TTS.  
So, in the Kindle app, you can read the title via VoiceOver or choose to hear 
the human voices which were recorded in a studio; the same audio heard in any 
Audible title.
You can also navigate the title via the audio narration or via VoiceOver.  For 
example, when you use a VoiceOver gesture to change pages or jump to a specific 
location in the book, when next you engage the Audible portion, the human voice 
narration reading will resume at the same location. It's really quite amazing 
(smile).
In the US, a standard annual Prime membership subscription is currently $139.

Subject: Attention All Amazon Prime Subscribers
Hello Everyone,
I am posting this because I recently discovered a new resource for accessing / 
downloading newly released and more, Audible audiobooks at no additional charge 
to Prime subscribers.
Please understand that there is a great deal about Amazon and Amazon prime 
benefits that many find rather confusion, including me, so I am just going to 
relay my experience and in no way am I posting as an expert.
Okay, the other day, I saw an advertisement for a newly released collection of 
short stories that were published on Kindle, only, with audio narration 
(narration by Audible).  There was a fee for the collection but the 
advertisement stated that Prime members could download and read the collection 
for free.
Intrigued, I fired up my trusty iOS Kindle app and opened the Discover tab.
Now remember, I'm going to keep this as simple as possible.  In no way was my 
first experience a quick and smooth one for I had no idea of how any of this 
worked.
Okay, after opening the Discover tab, I selected the category, "Prime Reading." 
 There is also a "Kindle Unlimited" category, which I did not explore.  
I suspect that the Kindle Unlimited program is to Prime Reading as the Amazon

This is great info, Donna.

I had no idea.  I am going to share this on our other 2 lists so that Audible 
subscribers may use this method to explore the Amazon universe from the Audible 
app, as well as from the Kindle app.

Hi all,

Thanks, Mark, for this tip.  I’ll get some good mileage out of that, I suspect. 
:)

Just thought I’d add that you can do something kind of similar to this from 
within the Audible app.  If you tap The Discover tab, at the top will be severl 
filters you can use, one of which is Included in My Library.  These are titles 
in the Audio Plus category, which means they are free to you as an Audible 
subscriber.  When I first learned about this, I dismissed it, because it seemed 
like a lot of the freebies were just podcasts.  But when I looked more closely, 
I saw that there are some interesting titles included.  For example, after 
watching The Queen’s Gambit on Netflix, I was able to download the audio book 
for free.  If you’re looking for a specific book, and want to see if it’s in 
your Audio Plus catalog, go to the Discover tab, and then tap Search.  Type or 
dictate the title you’re looking for, and then select the Included in my 
Library filter.

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Donna

I don’t have a prime membership, but I can also get audible companions for some 
of my kindle books. They cost seven dollars each. There is, as I wrote in a 
previous message, the option to subscribe to “Kindle unlimited “. You can see 
what kinds of books there are in that section by going to the Kindle store.

Hello Mont,

Yes, the audio narrators are real people, not a TTS.  

So, in the Kindle app, you can read the title via VoiceOver or choose to hear 
the human voices which were recorded in a studio; the same audio heard in any 
Audible title.

You can also navigate the title via the audio narration or via VoiceOver.  For 
example, when you use a VoiceOver gesture to change pages or jump to a specific 
location in the book, when next you engage the Audible portion, the human voice 
narration reading will resume at the same location. It's really quite amazing 
(smile).

In the US, a standard annual Prime membership subscription is currently $139.

Hello Everyone,

I am posting this because I recently discovered a new resource for accessing / 
downloading newly released and more, Audible audiobooks at no additional charge 
to Prime subscribers.

Please understand that there is a great deal about Amazon and Amazon prime 
benefits that many find rather confusion, including me, so I am just going to 
relay my experience and in no way am I posting as an expert.

Okay, the other day, I saw an advertisement for a newly released collection of 
short stories that were published on Kindle, only, with audio narration 
(narration by Audible).  There was a fee for the collection but the 
advertisement stated that Prime members could download and read the collection 
for free.

Intrigued, I fired up my trusty iOS Kindle app and opened the Discover tab.

Now remember, I'm going to keep this as simple as possible.  In no way was my 
first experience a quick and smooth one for I had no idea of how any of this 
worked.

Okay, after opening the Discover tab, I selected the category, "Prime Reading." 
 There is also a "Kindle Unlimited" category, which I did not explore.  

I suspect that the Kindle Unlimited program is to Prime Reading as the Amazon 
Music Unlimited program is to Prime Music; a guess, only.

Here in Mexico, we don’t have Amazon Family plans either; nor is Audible 
available within the Amazon Prime package. Imagine audible here in Mexic isn’t 
available on the Echo speakers or Amazon Fire Tablets either! Thus the means to 
access Audible here is either through tha App on SmartPhones, or via the

And then of course you forgot to mention that this may only apply to 
Amazon/Audible in the United States. I am not saying it does, but there are 
often limitations with these services in other countries. One example is the 
lack of availability of a family account for Amazon in Canada. I understand in 
the United States you can set up something like that and invite family members 
and they will also enjoy the benefits of Amazon Prime, here in Canada that is 
not available or at least not at this point.

RE: amazon prime video app, direct touch and search?

2020-11-06 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Thanks, this helped. I thought I’d tapped on that unlabeled search field at the 
top of the screen before, but I don’t think I realized the keyboard had popped 
up. With your tip, I was able to persist and sort it out. Now I need to figure 
out how to report this to Amazon.

I just looked and I have the same tabs as you do. I did find how to search, but 
it is not obvious.

 

1, Go to Find tab.

2, Go to the very top of the screen. You should hear, actions available, 
Possible Text, Q Actor, title, or genre. This is your search field.

3, double tap to activate the search field. You should hear, search field is 
editing.

4, Type what you are looking for and double tap the search button on the right 
side of the space bar of the keyboard.

5, To exit the search field, if you swipe one time to the right from the edit 
field, you will find a back button. Double tap the button to cancel the search.

 

 

Hope this is helpful.

Hi list.

Can someone explain to me how to find the search box in the amazon prime video 
app? I can see a ist of categories and genres, but no way to search or anything.
Also i am getting a message asking me to use the rota to enable direct touch, 
but can’t find this in my rota options.
Thanks in advance for any help.

RE: amazon prime video app, direct touch and search?

2020-11-04 Thread Richard Turner
As for the Direct Touch, it is on the rotor when you touch a screen and it says 
Direct touch Area and you cannot do anything, turn the rotor until you hear 
direct touch and flick up.

It is not a setting within VoiceOver, it has something to do with a change on 
Apple's part.

As the subject states, I am wanting to know how to watch Amazon prime 
programming on my phone? Do I just go into the Amazon app? Or do I go somewhere 
else? If I go into the Amazon app, how do I find TV shows and such? I have an

Its probably a question of what is Amazon doing wrong.
I assume Audio Description is turned on in your phone settings.

If so, when you start a movie that is supposed to have the description track 
and it doesn't play, pause the movie and see if there are any buttons that 
would give you a choice of audio tracks.
Some times, for some reason, you have to make sure the English with description 
is on in the movie, at least with some platforms.
I do not have Prime, so I cannot be sure.

You may also want to call Amazon accessibility customer service.

Hi, all.


I'm using an iPhone SE with iOS 12.4.?? I don't want to update at this time, so 
I'm hoping my issue won't be one that needs an update to solve it.


I'm trying to figure out how to get the app for Amazon Prime Video to 
consistently play the audio described track.?? I've verified that the movies in 
question have the DVS track, but I cannot seem to get it to play.


This is frustrating, because I played a movie yesterday that had DVS and I just 
double-tapped the Play Now button in the Prime Video App and the movie, 
including description started playing with no additional input from me.


These are movies included with my Prime subscription and not ones I need to 
rent from Amazon, if that makes a difference.


What am I doing wrong?

wow, I didn't realize that about Amazon movies and DVS.?? This is really unfair

Out of the 20 movies I've added to my watch list that supposedly have audio 
description, I've only gotten one to work with the app.?? I'm not paying to 
rent a movie just for the ;pleasure of DVS, not with my Prime membership I pay

is on in the movie, at least with some platforms.

Subject: Hearing Descriptive Tracks in Amazon Prime App

Hi, all.


I'm using an iPhone SE with iOS 12.4.?? I don't want to update at this time, so 
I'm hoping my issue won't be one that needs an update to solve it.


I'm trying to figure out how to get the app for Amazon Prime Video to 
consistently play the audio described track.?? I've verified that the movies in 
question have the DVS track, but I cannot seem to get it to play.


This is frustrating, because I played a movie yesterday that had DVS and I just 
double-tapped the Play Now button in the Prime Video App and the movie, 
including description started playing with no additional input from me.


These are movies included with my Prime subscription and not ones I need to 
rent from Amazon, if that makes a difference.


What am I doing wrong?

Hello Lisa,

I do not think you are doing anything wrong.  Unfortunately, Amazon states that 
if a movie has audio description available, because of licensing issues, the 
track will not be available in the free version that comes with a prime 
membership, but will be available in the version that you rent.
Now this only applies to movies.  All of their original series do come with 
audio description.

Personally I do not agree with this, and think this is not right.  A sighted 
person is able to watch the movie with their prime membership, but we only get 
audio description if we pay.  I do not know if this is Amazon doing this, or 
the movie companies.

I use the ACB Link app to look through all the audio description titles 
available through all the different sources.

Hope this has been helpful.

Chris

Re: Hearing Descriptive Tracks in Amazon Prime App

2019-10-05 Thread Lisa Belville

Hi, Chris.


wow, I didn't realize that about Amazon movies and DVS.?? This is really 
unfair if it is indeed how Amazon handles DVS distribution and their 
content.



Out of the 20 movies I've added to my watch list that supposedly have 
audio description, I've only gotten one to work with the app.?? I'm not 
paying to rent a movie just for the ;pleasure of DVS, not with my Prime 
membership I pay full price for.?? Not to sound whiney, but yes, we pay 
the $119 a year for Amazon Prime just like everyone else.?? What a let 
down.?? At least Netflix is more consistent and their app is a bit more 
user friendly.



I also use the ACB site for information about what is and isn't described.

I think Amazon needs to up their game with respect to descriptive video. Here 
in Canada I have never come across a single one which has audio descriptions.
At least I just read that at least I can finally add Apple Music so that I can 
now play music via my Echo speakers from my Apple Music subscription.

Its probably a question of what is Amazon doing wrong.
I assume Audio Description is turned on in your phone settings.

If so, when you start a movie that is supposed to have the description track 
and it doesn't play, pause the movie and see if there are any buttons that 
would give you a choice of audio tracks.
Some times, for some reason, you have to make sure the English with description

It works like a charm only it's very hard to get out of there and back to the

Thanks. Easy as pie. I just noticed that the more stuff that goes on the phone 
the more I am being pestered to allow this and allow that which then means 
stuff I don't want starts to appear in my mailbox or on Facebook. But I'll 
download it and see how it goes.

You need the Prime Video app installed.  In that app the ones that are
free are listed with that included in the details.  You get a 'Watch

I have been led to believe that many free movies are available to prime users

So anyone taking taking advantage of this, must I have the prime video app

Hi all. I really appreciate the responses. I guess we know that currently the 
audio description is not available in Canada. Obviously the next step is to 
contact Amazon and see how we can persuade them to make it available in this 
country as well.

Subject: Can't Activate Amazon Prime Audio Description in Canada

I have an Amazon Prime Subscription here in Nova Scotia Canada. I cannot get 
the Audio Description to work. I have contacted Amazon Support. They cannot 
tell me whether or not it is available in Canada. I have followed the steps 
correctly but do not see an option for turning on the Audio Description.


I have tried it on my iPhone 7,  my Apple TV 4th generation and within the 
Prime Video App on my Sony Smart TV — all with no success. I have tried it 
with Boch which does have Audio Dscription.


Have any other Canadians tried it and succeeded?

Thanks.

Hi Barry,

I assume you mean "Bosch" as in the Harry Bosch series? I am in BC and don't 
think I ever came across anything on Amazon Prime with audio description, 
certainly it doesn't seem to be available for the Harry Bosch series.

Sieghard

Kimber, 

Thanks for these details on how to turn on audio description with the prime 
video app. My answer was just wrong so I'm so glad you had it. I do believe 
once audio description is turned on in the app that it stays on for all 
programs that have description. I'm always a big confused why developers put a 
setting like this under an episode playback control when it has application 
across the entire app. No wonder I couldn't remember where to find it.

Re: Amazon prime and audio description

2018-04-23 Thread Kimberly
In order to turn on audio description in the amazon prime video app, you first 
must start playing whatever episode you're planning to watch. With the video 
playing, start exploring the screen until you find an option for subtitles. 
Once you've accessed that option you'll find audio description in there.


I assume that once descriptions have been turned on it will be on for future 
episodes, but I can't say for sure as I've just started playing around with 
this app.

RE: Amazon prime and audio description

2018-04-23 Thread Alan Lemly
I believe there used to be a setting in the Amazon Prime Video app to turn on 
audio description but I've been through every setting and can't find one in the 
latest version of the app. You do need to have audio descriptions turned on 
under Settings, General, Accessibility and it is about fourth from the bottom 
of that screen which it sounds s if you already have this turned on. If you 
want to test audio description in the Prime Video app, the Bosch series has it 
in the first 3 seasons for sure and I'm assuming also in the 4th season just 
released.

If the audio description isn't working for you, I'd suggest contacting Amazon 
under the Contact Us setting in the Prime Video app or by calling Amazon 
Accessibility at 888-283-1678 or emailing them at 
accessibility-feedb...@amazon.com.

Re: Amazon Prime Video voice and audio description

2017-12-22 Thread bpabbott9
. I’m just curious whether or not audio description is available in Canada.

I have not been able to turn it on either using my iPhone or my computer or 
even getting cited help. I called Amazon about the problem and they are 
supposed to be calling me back I know that the show Bosch is supposed to be 
described and I know that the audio description is supposed to be found under 
subtitles and audio however it does not seem to show up in any of my devices. 
When I try running Bosch I am not getting the audio description.

I’m wondering if anybody can tell me whether it is or is not available in 
Canada thanks for this and to everyone have a wonderful holiday.

Hi, 
Assuming you’re talking about Apple TV, there is no way to disable the text to

Not sure about your audio description question, as I don’t use Prime video all

Re: Amazon Prime video

2017-12-11 Thread Richard Turner
The original tv series apparently do. After you start an episode starts, pause 
it and look for audio and subtitle options.  Double tap and look for Audio and 
subtitles options Button.  English with audio description will be there if it 
is available.
I do not know that all originals have it, but some do for sure.
I've not tried any movies yet.
Enjoy,
Richard

you have to tell the app you want register your device online, it will present 
you with a code, and then you sign in to your account, and go too
amazon.com/mytv
and enter the code, and you will be good to go.

RE: Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

2017-12-07 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,

I have Prime set up and registered on my Apple TV 4 now. I was wondering if 
described movies and television shows are set apart anywhere as they are in the 
Netflix app? In the Netflix app they have their own category. Navigating seems 
a little more of a chore in Prime. Sound certainly seems better in Prime. And 
the selection is outstanding. 

Thanks in advance,

Merv

Re: Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

2017-12-07 Thread Wayne Merritt
I had a brief play with it on my 4th Gen Apple TV last night and
noticed a few things. First, there is a voice that starts speaking
when the app detects you are using VoiceOver, along with a VoiceOver
navigation voice. Also, these two voices appear to be the same.
Perhaps I was just hearing things due to the late hour last night, but
it sounded like there were 2 voices of the same kind, like Samantha,
speaking on my Apple TV inside the Prime Video app. Next, it took me a
few swipes on the remote to get it to move anywhere. The first few
swipes would give me the message something like cannot swipe in that
direction. Finally, though I could activate the menus and browse a few
items in the categories, it was a bit frustrating. Hopefully Voiceover
support will improve in future versions. Would be interested in other
opinions since I played with it right before bed.

Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

2017-12-06 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi,

Surprised nobody noticed this yet,  but when I saw I had 6 app updates tonight 
I had a look and the long-awaited and announced app for Amazon Prime Video for 
TVOS is now available.
The description of the iOS app said:

* Watch on your Apple TV directly by downloading the separate TVOS app. 
Requires Apple TV Third Generation or later.
* Universal search now supported - search for prime videos using iOS 
search/SIRI (US, Canada, Australia, Norway and Sweden only
* iPhone 10 support

This is good timing indeed since I just signed up for the 30-day Amazon Prime 
trial, now that we have received our Echo devices and the app is available it 
will be worthwhile to pay for it and keep it going.

Does this settings stick? That is, once you have found Internet for one video, 
if another video you select has audio description does the setting work without 
having to be reactivated to try?

Re: Amazon Prime

2017-12-01 Thread Chris Chaffin

Just like Netflix, I think most of Amazons original series is described.  You 
turn on audio description the same way as Netflix.  After starting a video, you 
pause it with a 2 finger double tap, now the screen will be in landscape, so 
you will have to hold the phone that way.  A menu will appear, swipe until you 
hear audio and subtitles and double tap.  Then swipe until you hear english 
with audio description and double tap to select it.  Then you can close the 
menus and all videos will play with audio description if available.
ACB publishes a list of all audio described videos on Amazon.  Here is their 
current list:

http://acb.org/adp/amazonad.html

Hope this helps.

Chris

Re: Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV

2017-11-21 Thread Mary Otten
You know, this isn’t going to be very helpful, I think you hold the back button 
after the Fire TV is connected. There is an exact explanation on the Amazon 
website. I think if you Google voice view FireTV you’re going to find it. It’s 
very simple. It’s just that I did it several months ago, so I don’t 
remember.They describe the remote layout and with the different keys do you 
etc. And they tell you about voicemail. Very straightforward stuff.

Re: Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV

2017-11-21 Thread Mary Otten
Interesting. I think my only experience with A.D. on the fire stick has been 
with Amazon prime series Harry Bosch. I haven’t listen to that much audio 
description on either one, but it did seem to me, and this could be strictly 
based on whatever series I was watching, that the audio description with the 
Apple TV really messed with the sound. That is the stereo or whenever it was 
wasn’t that good. Whereas with Amazon, it seems better. It could be series 
dependent, or I could be crazy.

I am really considering trying the fire tv stick. How would I go about
enabling voice view? I have the apple tv 4th gen, but I am thinking
about giving it back to it's original owner and trying something new.
I had a few issues with it not long ago that annoyed me a bit. Signing
in to my Youtube use to be broken, I had to get someone sighted to log
me in. I have no brand loyalty, I like to switch it up and use what
fits me better at the time. It would have been nice if aAmazon and
apple played nice a while ago to bring us the amazon video app on the
apple tv.

I know you can airplay Amazon prime to your Apple TV even if you have an older 
generation Apple TV that doesn’t support apps so you can still do that even if 
there’s no apps for Amazon prime yet

RE: Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV

2017-11-21 Thread Rick Alfaro
Hi Mary.

 

I prefer the Apple TV for a couple of reasons. One is what you said, AirPlay 
since I have so many Apple devices here. The other is that I prefer the way 
Audio Description is implemented via their Movies app. If I rent a movie, my 
preference for AD is remembered and I don’t have to specifically choose AD 
under languages. That hasn’t been my experience on the Fire TV.

could do with my AppleTV, so perhaps that’s why. Nothing against the Apple TV. 
But if I hadn’t already purchased one, I don’t think I would get one now,

2017-11-21 Thread Mary Otten
You can do a lot with Alexa with respect to searching for movies etc. Also, 
Netflix is outstandingly accessible. It had an issue, but it was quickly fixed, 
actually faster than a similar issue when Apple had it with the sign in 
process. Anyway, I think the accessibility for apps is fairly comparable, at 
least for those I use. And there are definitely lots of things out there that I 
don’t use, so I can’t comment on all that.

Rick can give his reasons, but mine would probably be that I enjoy using SIRI 
for asking to find a particular movie or something on Youtube, there are a lot 
of accessible apps and while I don’t know the Fire TV, Im not sure if it has 
apps like the ‘Apple TV for playing content say from CBC News, Engaged, The 
Verge and many other tech sites/sources, how accessible is Netflix on it (a 
very good experience on the Apple TV), same goes for Youtube and then of course 
there is the fact that with my Apple TV I can access photos and videos I have 
on my computer and I can Airplay to it.

I would say the Apple TV is 100% accessible. Just because all apps are not 
accessible does not mean the device isn’t. If you go by accessibility of apps 
you would also have to say the iPhone is not 100% accessible.
Anyhow, I guess it comes down to interpretation and semantics.

I have too much iTunes content to switch. And you can’t view that content on 
any other device. I don’t think any of these devices could be considered 100% 
accessible.

Re: Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV

2017-11-21 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Rick,
I’m curious why you prefer your AppleTV fourth-generation over the fire TV 
stick. I to have both of those, and these days, I think I actually prefer the 
fire stick. Of course I don’t take a vantage of the music sending etc. that I 
could do with my AppleTV, so perhaps that’s why. Nothing against the Apple TV. 
But if I hadn’t already purchased one, I don’t think I would get one now, 
because it seems like the fire stick does everything I wanted to do, and it was 
a lot cheaper.
Mary

RE: Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV

2017-11-21 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Well, it’s definitely a good thing that so many popular off-the-shelf devices 
are now accessible, competition is always good for innovation, but let’s not 
forget that ultimately we do have Apple to thank for that.
I just checked on Amazon.ca and was surprised that they are selling the Fire TV 
stick here in Canada for $39.99, Amazon certainly hasn’t been all that good 
about making their products and services available in other countries. I will 
just wait until the Apple TV will get the Amazon Prime Video app, given all the 
announcements going back quite a long time I really can’t see how that will be 
too much longer. I just don’t feel like continueing to buy all these gadegets 
which basically do the same thing just maybe in a different way unless it’s 
absolutely necessary. Sames goes for the Chromcast  devices, they are 
inexpensive and seem to work well and the approach that you start something 
from an app on the phone and then the Chromcast takes over is I think quite 
innovative and nice, but as I said, it’s just another device which I need to 
find a port for and my 9-year old Sony 40 inch LCD TV only has 2 HDMI inputs 
which we use for our Apple TV and for my wife’s TFC set top box (that’s “The 
Filipino Channel”). As far as I can tell that’s simply an Android box 
customized for their purposes, but if we wanted to add anything else we also 
would have to buy a good HDMI splitter and on and on.

Regards,
Sieghard

RE: Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV

I thought the Fire TV was not accessible or has Amazon changed that?

I don’t think so. I do have an Apple TV fourth generation, although I don’t use 
it that much frankly. But I do scan the technical press every day, and I 
haven’t seen anything about the release. So I don’t think they have. Frankly I 
think the fire TV stick is a better deal at this point as opposed to the Apple 
TV.

Hi,

Has Amazon released the Amazon Prime Video app for the Apple TV in the US? Just 
signed up for the 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime, but when I checked the App 
Store on my 4th generation Apple TV it did not find it.

Best regards,
