Hi Scott,
Your guess about the Apple TV box is incorrect.
Bell does not insure any of their boxes, satellite or cable, can work with
adaptive technology, or access available items like descriptive video,
One does not require a specific technology for audio description so to
speak, just the ability to turn it on, something Bell does not provide.
Further, one must go through other hoops, have an apple account that must
be provided on mybell.ca which itself is not web access content
guidelines compliant.
Evan referenced the federal level human rights complaint against Bell
and their equipment...needful because the cRTC process is so over burdened
that they have little time to read complaints.
You work from the idea that Bell wants to be inclusive, speaking
personally as a customer of theirs since 2008, that is a kind and naive
assumption.

No, I said you wouldn't need a box capable of outputting 4k video
resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels), like the VIP5662 is, since you don't
have a 4K resolution TV.
"Apple TV 4K" is the name of a specific box that Apple sells. It is
capable of outputting 4K video but you don't have to use it at that
resolution. I'm guessing Bell Accessibility probably uses the Apple TV
4K box because of a specific feature that it can provide, like maybe
"descriptive video" audio output, or some other accessibility feature
that other products don't provide.
