| 1427387 | 2016-10-13 23:34:00 | I notice over the last week or two, on TV1 &2 a bloody annoying voice over most programmes explaining audibly exactly what is happening on screen. eg: "Mary walked to the door" or "John picked up the paper from the floor". Why do we need this crap. Are we really so thick that we cant see for our selves what's going on. Vive La TV3 |

| 1427388 | 2016-10-14 00:00:00 | It's not the "audio description" thing is it? What is it? Audio description is an optional additional narrative of on-screen visuals, usually inserted between dialogue. The service enables access to TV for blind or vision-impaired people. It is fully funded by NZ On Air. When audio description is available, you will hear normal audio plus the audio descriptions. When there is no audio description available, you will hear the normal audio. Which channels is audio description available on? TV ONE, TV2 and TV ONE plus 1. Check your languages setting menu > system settings > languages make sure it's on English You might have inadvertently enabled it or something (I certainly don't hear it :) ) |

| 1427389 | 2016-10-14 00:11:00 | Newer Freeview digital receivers may have an Audio Description selection option instead (apparently to enable it you have the above post languages set to Italian! No, not kidding :) ) tvnz.co.nz |
