Re: BBC HD Subtitles

A reply from ITV regarding subtitles on ITVHD, not looking good.

" ITV HD is a new service. The initial focus for our engineering team is to ensure that the HD channel is up and running and working correctly and efficiently. The team will then be in a position to look at the provision of access services for ITV HD, such as subtitles and audio description, and configure the operational standards for the platforms on which the channel operates.

It is unlikely that ITV HD will carry AD or subtitles until much later in the year or even into next year. However, we do appreciate the importance of access services to many of our viewers and would like to assure you that provision of subtitles, audio description and signing will continue as normal on the main ITV1 service in the meantime."

Re: BBC HD Subtitles

Channel 5 HD now on Virgin with subtitles. Why can't ITV HD get there finger out and provide subtitles.

Still not getting them here, rebooted V+ box Just in case, but no luck, anyone else getting subtitles in the Kent area on ITV HD ? I don't know if it's an ITV or a Virginmedia problem.

and they sent me an update.

But they are not on E4 at the mo(but should be)
Could you flick the switch please.


"As someone who has contacted us previously regarding the subject, we would like to advise that subtitles are now available to access on our Channel 4 and E4 HD channels.

We hope that this will improve the experience of our deaf and hearing impaired viewers.

If you have any problems accessing the subtitles via the channels, please do not hesitate to contact us.
