Re: Something of interest, maybe?
Hello, Yes I believe you are correct. It sounds like the closed caption function is active, and the media description function for voice over is active as well. As for the VPN, with the MLB app, if she uses one to access the local feed she may be blacked out. MLB is really bad about blacking out games this year.

Re: Something of interest, maybe?
Hi Maria, Are you actually activating the closed captioning for the hearing impaired? If so, that would explain this. With my MLB app here in the Buffalo, New York area, I get local commercials somehow instead of the NYC commercials. I am wondering if you are running a VPN? I wondered what might happen if you ran a VPN with these ever more targeted methods of IP sniffing and targeting of local adds. I wonder if you went too far with this would the streams not play.

Anyway, with a game in progress, I ask Siri for the score, swipe around till I find a play by play button, double tap on it, which opens my TV app. .

Something of interest, maybe?
I listen to the Yankees baseball games on the MLB app, but I don't get the local commercials, because I don't live in the broadcast area. The national commercials I get are absolutely horrendous and repetitive. I accidentally discovered a way to get rid of all commercials, but I do miss the announcer and the crowd. Anyway, with a game in progress, I ask Siri for the score, swipe around till I find a play by play button, double tap on it, which opens my TV app. . I then get another play by play button, and when I double tap on it, I get a pitch by pitch description by Siri. I love it. -- Maria Campbell lucky1i...@gmail.com “Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.” -- Jane Wagner from The Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
