stuck with audio description?
Hi all
Before switching the setting for Audio Description to OFF, I recorded several programmes, all of which play with Audio Description, which is no use to me. Am I stuck with it for programmes recorded before I switched the setting to OFF?
Cheers
Helen

I would think so as it's provided as part of the stream which is then dumped to the hard drive

Hi Helen,

Yes, as that was the chosen audio stream, sorry.

Audio Description service is a wonderful thing btw. Brings alive films and shows for many who cannot normally enjoy them.

I don't doubt that for a moment Doug. It's great that it's there for those that need or want it. I didn't know it existed until I tried to playback a recorded programme - was just curious to know if it can be removed post recording....which it seems it can't.

Are the programmes available on VOD or are they shown again?
