Re: [JAWS-Users] Issues with Netflix and a laptop using JAWS 16
Netflix is much easier to manage on the iPhone than on the laptop, at least that's my experience. I can tell you if you turn on audio description using the app on your phone, then when you watch content on your laptop the audio description will be on already and you won't need to mess with it. There were some pretty good instructions posted a few months ago on one of the jaws lists. I can't recall if it was this list or another, but I have them saved on my other computer and will send them privately, if you'd like.

I have tried and failed to navigate the audio description part of Netflix. The problem is a strange one, and easily fixable by Netflix. When you go to Netflix and have your profile on the screen, near the bottom of that page is a link to audio description. Clicking on that link gives you a page that has all the audio described content. However, there is no accessible way to tell it to play the audio described version; they have a separate set of buttons that my sighted daughter can navigate, but not me. Netflix simply should change the default so when somebody navigates to the audio description content page, clicking on the Y player brings up the intended audio described version.
