Subject: [access-uk] Accessible Set-top Boxes


Hi Folks

There was talk some time ago that  there was going to be an 
accessible solution to set-top  tuners/recorders by adding speech to 
the on screen menu'sfor such as EPG etc.  I'm sure the RNIB member of 
staff who used to send out e-mail bulitins of AD films etc. who's job 
was sadly axed and she no longer works for them  informed me that 
something was to be launched in February/March of this year but as 
yet I've heard nothing about it.

Also I remember reading an article from someone called Brian Hartgen 
regarding something along these lines, or maybe he was talking about 
accessible TV's, but I'm sure the technology would be the same.

So does anyone have any info on this subject please?

Thanks
Martin
