Will this thing work hooked directly to a regular antenna to receive the
digital TV over the air and broadcast it on the network for the apps to
receive? Also, will it support the alternate audio settings to turn
description on when it's available? On the Dish box, you have to go way in
the menu to set alternate audio, and it doesn't seem to work even on TNT,
USA, etc that are known to have it at times. The antenna jack here is
strangely on the opposite wall from the jacks for Dish and cable, so it
ended up just about behind the recliner, and I'm about 30 miles or so away
from the stations.

Hi group,
I have purchased the Belkin @TV and am happy to report it is very
accessible.
The Belkin @TV is a piece of hardware that allows you to watch your TV
on your mobile devices. You controll the television as if you were
sitting on your couch at home. I have it set up on an IPad 2 and an
IPhone 5. My cable provider is Comcast.
Here are my findings so far. I am still playing around and have to
look into the On Demand and DVR pieces yet.
The watching of the actual feed to the TV is very good. You select
the View @TV and what ever is currently on the TV will play on the
mobile device.
The remote is very accessible. As with other video players, you have
to double click the screne to get the remote to come back up after the
video play takes control again, but all of the remote's buttons are
read by VoiceOver. If nothing else this is a good way to control your
television from your IPhone or IPad! Though the cost makes it a very
expensive remote...
Guide is good for accessibility. I am still playing around with this
as well, but there are a lot of items to scroll through on the screne.
You can go through by heading, and can search for actual shows. All
in all it is all read quite well by VoiceOver, I just need to play
with it some more.
There are options for favorites, but I have not played with that part as
of yet.
The Belkin @TV hardware costs between $130 - $150. The IPad app is
free and the IPhone app costs $12.50.
Thank you,
Denny
