Was setting up new Apple Black Box (Hockey Puck) this morning. Evidently turned some Voice Over on that describes everything on screen and any actions you take! All I want to do is go into my Apple TV Setup Screen and turn this off.
It sounds like an aid for computer users who aren't sighted, or, are physically disadvantaged in some way.
Any directions appreciated!
This feature is called ‘Audio Descriptions’ (AD) in the documentation. It is a separate audio track on select content.
Some accessibility settings may have been invoked accidentally, through the Accessibility Shortcut (triple-click Back or Menu). If you wish to configure the shortcut different or disable all linked functions for the shortcut, then you may do so in Settings﹥Accessibility﹥Accessibility Shortcut﹥…
I found it before you got back to me! Turned off correct feature and peace now reigns supreme in our home.
Thanks for your getting back to me with the solution. At 80, I am still learning about the technology that you grew up with. My wife and I love Apple TV as we dumped Spectrum's 40,000 channels for the few that we love and can watch. Our son is an Apple kid and grew up on MacIntosh, worked for a radio conglomerate and now a large area hospital provider. He could not be available to help me as his two sons are small and his wife going into perimenopause. And I forgot about Siri! Mind isn't what it used to be but life is still an adventure. You deserve an award for your quick reply while I was sorting through my menu on Apple TV. Best wishes for the upcoming holidays--whatever they may be!
Thanks for your kind words. You’re welcome. Enjoy your shows as intended.
