Audio Description topics have come up lately on this and other lists.

ON my main web page, there is the following section.  So folks don't have to
find it on the page, here it is and the links should be live so you can use
this email if you have html messages on to get to any of these resources.

Other Resources for Audio Description


Described Movies from Jeff


Jeff Rutkowski is someone who has provided a lot of movies and TV shows
audio files for live streaming or downloading. Here is the first paragraph
from his web site followed by the link.
Welcome to my described movies page. To listen to any of these movies,
simply click on or press enter on the link. If you wish to download them,
access your applications menu and select the "save link as" or "Save target
as" option. Please note: I try to make sure that all links listed on this
page work, and few to no duplicated movies exist but, I may have missed a
few here and there. If you find duplicate links or links that lead to a
non-working movie, feel free to contact me at jrutkowski7 at gmail
<mailto:[email protected]>  Jeff Rutkowski's Described Movie's page
<https://jeff.tdrealms.com/Described_Movies.md> 


Audio Vault


Audio Vault is another site that is also linked from Jeff Rutkowski's page,
but here is the direct link. Note, you have to sign up for a free account to
download described audio files from the Audio Vault, much like the way the
Blind Mice Movie Vault works, only easier.
Audio Vault.net <http://audiovault.net/> 


Blind Mice Mega Mall Movie Vault


Once you have established a free account you can go directly to the Movie
Vault where they have MP3 files of movie soundtracks with audio description.
To create an account, go to their main page: Blind Mice Mega Mall
<http://www.blindmicemegamall.com/>  Then, you can use the next link to go
directly to the movie vault. Note, you will have to login but then you will
be on the movie vault page.

Most TV's now have the ability to turn on the Audio Description channel,
often it is the Secondary Audio Programing feature under the audio controls.
If your TV does not have that, check with your cable company about how to
access their content with audio description.

If you are an xFinity customer you can call their accessibility help desk:
855-270-0379

If you have an iPhone, go to Settings, General, Accessibility. In the
section titled Media, you can enable Subtitles and Captioning. Only enable
that if you want VoiceOver reading the captions. The next item is Audio
Descriptions, it defaults to off, double tap to turn it on using VoiceOver.
This way, things you stream with audio description should play the audio
description automatically. Some services will require you to select
description from the audio controls within their app.
