RE: does any one know about the audio description feature under mediea under genral and accessibillidey is supos to do?
Since Apple has not truly explained this feature, I am going to take a guess. I think this will be for movies or TV shows you buy through iTunes that have the Audio Description track on them. If you want to get an idea which movies have audio description, take a look at: http://www.acb.org/adp/dvds.html they also list TV shows. This doesn’t guarantee that the iTunes copy will have it, but it is a starting place. For those who don’t know what Audio Description means, it is a service for visually impaired that provides a description of the non-verbal stuff going on in a movie, the scene, actions, etc. You have to be able to turn the feature on in a DVD menu in most cases to access it. Some TV shows have it and you would select the SAP channel on the TV menu or remote control. Many movie theaters now offer headsets for the descriptive audio track. Check with your local movie theater to see if they have this service available. If means that a blind person no longer has to ask someone what is going on during silent stretches in movies or when there is a lot of action going on.

I thought I heard that there was only a handful of Pixar movies on Itunes that have it. I hope that changes.

Re: does any one know about the audio description feature under mediea under genral and accessibillidey is supos to do?
Not all movie theaters offer the head sets for audio description movies, but several theater chains such as AMC Loews do have them for their movies. Sometimes movies made in other countries such as England and shown here offer that option. I recently saw the film belle in a theater with audio description offered and it really added a lot to the experience. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
