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….

Wait a minute! If that is the case, then why on earth was David, who is
in Austrailia able to get it to work on that Applevis review that he did
yesterday?

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.

Apple TV has been accessible for ages.
How do you verify if Netflix has audio describe on it?

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.

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.
