Hi Gary,
Audio Description is available on the older UPC Thompson boxes, they just don't
know about it themselves!
I don't have that box any more, and indeed, I upgraded to Horizon in part
because at the time I too thought that it was only available on that system.
I'll ask the person who told me though and find out for you how to enable it.
Note though if you don't have the Thompson box it may not work.
Stuart

Hi guys.
After a Very long time waiting to get a upc sale representative, I first got to
ask does upc have the facilities on their boxes for audio description and yes
indeed they do but you have to get a Horizon box which will cost you an extra
€5 a month, I told the guy that this is discrimination against visually
impaired and blind folk as this is the only way that these people can enjoy
there favourite tv program's and his reply was that anyone that has that box
pays the extra cost, I told him that I would make more enquiries about this
cost from the justice and equality body of Ireland. If anyone else has come
across this type of abuse for disabled people I encourage you to complain about
it.
Gary
