Video description through Secondary Audio Program (SAP)
Video description is audio descriptions of the action in a program, to help individuals
who are blind or visually impaired enjoy the program. You enable video description by
selecting one of the Secondary Audio Program (SAP) options.
To hear video description narrations in programs that have them, turn on
SAP
. If there
are multiple
SAP
options for a channel, such as
Spanish
and
French
, try each one to
determine which setting carries the video description track.
Note
:
Broadcasters provide video descriptions only on a small number of programs. If
you are unable to hear video descriptions after following these instructions, the
program you are viewing does not provide them.
