[access-uk] Re: Audio description of Olympics opening ceremony available anywhere?

Hi Colin;

I think what you want already exists: Petrina posted this link which is the
FULL audio described ceremony in mp3 - 311mb http://www.sendspace.com/file/*
*cmgvuz <http://www.sendspace.com/file/cmgvuz>

I posted a cut down version without the full parades (restarting when team
GB come in!) at https://www.box.com/s/0924f389b84f83f0828a which is 65mb in
mp4 aac format.
In the unlikely event you can't play mp4 and your device doesn't transcode
when copying, then just let me know.

If you want the NON audio described tv audio with just the basic
commentary, let me know.
