Well, I don't know where my market stands. It's Pittsburgh, PA. How do I
find out? As for HD vs. non-HD, it's non-HD on CBS, both on USA, non at all
on NBC and ABC. I called the local NBC people and they listed 5 programs
which should have DVS and I regularly watch4 of them and none have DVS where
they used to have it last year except for the new entry in the list.

Are you in one of the top 25 markets? If not, this could make a
difference. Also, are you referring to standard or high definition
channels? I ask because Dish did pass on the dvs feed on standard def
channels but not on HD. Here in South Florida, Directv provides dvs on
both SD and HD but this market is number 16 on the top 25 list of markets.
From what I understand, currently, the FCC rulings mandate audio
description in the top 25 markets to be extended at some future date that
I honestly don't recall.
If you are in the top 25 and are not getting audio description on both SD
and HD channels, you should file a complaint with the FCC.

Wish I could be as sanguin about Directv. The local NBC affiliate
swears that they're sending DVS with several shows, yet none of them
come out that way with Directv. TThey said that they'd look into the
problem, but it's been two weeks and nothing has changed.

All I can say is good luck with Dish. Been there and done that and can
tell you first hand that Dish doesn't care about accessibility, even
after having filed an FCC complaint.
I switched to DirecTV and never looked back.

Hi again,
I got with my bro-in-law a few minutes ago and I found out that with
VO on, it does ask me do I want to record this, all, etc but VO won't
read it out to me. So is there anything I can do other than call/write
Dish about this? I've been contacting them regarding this for the last
few months, and nothing has been done. The only other thing I can
think if is maybe I can go back to another older version. Its just a
little aggravating that I can't record shows as before.
