    Hi, I notice some programs last night had a kind of inane commentry alongside the normal audio...

    Shameless on C4HD
    Another prog on BBC HD

    Stuff like
    "Joe puts the item down and walks towards the door".

    Is this a disability / access feature ? How do I disable it? Where did it come from - broadcaster? or my STB (VU+ Duo)

    Many thanks

    It's the audio description service for those with poor vision. It should be possible to disable - on my Freesat system there's an AD button to enable/disable it.

    On the Vu+, press Audio and then select 'Dolby Digital' (the audio description is carried on MPEG).

    To avoid having to continually select Dolby Digital:

    Menu->Setup->System->AV Settings->Dolby digital default set to 'yes'
