Trying Dynasty the CW / Netflix remake and i’m absolutely hooked! I am utterly enthralled with rich snobs backstabbing and fucking each other over. The audio description isn’t pointing out any of the characters races, so I was a little confused a lot throughout a few parts. There’s a part where the butler and a guy are stuck in a cellar and the butler says, take a gun and shoot the lock off the door, and the guy replies, don’t stereotype me! I can infer at least one of them is a person of color, but this is where a case where the objective audio description fails to guide me along with the drama / story. I am having the absolute time of my life though. #TV #TVShow #Netflix #AudioDescription

It'll be interesting to see if they'll give #KnotsLanding #AudioDescription or is it #VideoDescription? All these years later and I never know when to use what term.

CW: The accessibility for the blind advent calendar: day 11 - Germany - expand the content warning to open the window for today!
As the app that is the star of today's window has updated on my phone today, let me introduce you to Greta, the German app for audiodescription, closed captions and other forms of accessibility in movies.
It works by first downloading an encrypted, I believe, copy of the movie's audio and then when we want to watch it described or subtitled, we just start the app, let it listen to the sound around us and it will tune in at the right spot in time with the accessibility accommodations we need. Should you forget your headphones to hear the audiodescription in, you can still listen to it over the earpiece. The system is not context-aware so it can tune into the movie at a cinema or at home when watching on the Internet or on TV which gives universal access to all the accommodations. The only wish I would have is more independent cinema productions and the ability to combine multiple adjustments so that I could watch that movie with a lot of Austrian dialect in it with both audiodescription and subtitles.
Today's update brings sound amplification. If I understand correctly, you can also have the actual audio track of the movie played through your phone in sync with the original.
I believe the concept was replicated in other countries already so you might know it under another name.
