Hi, Yes, I've spoken to someone who's had a similar problem. They really shouldn't have pulled the service so rapidly.

I did this with this box, but it seems that Netgem have pulled the = service completely, so now we just get a load of unknown channel messages. Has anyone else had this happen to them? The Freeview AD situation is getting like it was before the Netgem came = out - I don't know of anyone with the Portset media centre, and I want my = living room to be free of PC equipment! Thanks.

Not altogether sure the Netgem is = still being sold but someone's bound to update you on that. I don't know of any other Freeview boxes that will support audio description. (Sure someone will be along before the night's out saying = there are pbetter approaches, many no doubt involving using a PC.)
