Yes, it is a recorder and it does record the audio description track. It
will record the AD whether or not you have AD active. i.e. you can turn AD
on after you have recorded something and it will still have AD.

Hi all -
Is the TVOnics a recorder as well as an accessible freeview tuner? If so,
does it record the AD track as well with the programme? -

Hello Ibrahim, Pulse-eight seem to have offices dotted all over the place!
it's very early days of course but, at the moment, they seem to be
promoting the dtrz500. I shall try and find out if they intend to improve
the rather flakey programmkme software, let's hope!

Hi Fran.
No, none of the bush range of TV's have voice over, if you want a talking
Freeview system then the best bet would be the TVonics now pulse-eight
units with the integrated speech output. You can still get TVonics boxes
off EBay and install the text to speech option, if you want to go down
this route then I'd be happy to help you source and guide you through the
installation of said speech.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Andy.
Unfortunately because I live alone and don't have anyone else to account
to, I couldn't give a toss about the picture quality on my set. All I
know about the screen is the resolution and that its an HD ready TV, my
support worker who has to help me sort some technical glitches sometimes
tells me that the viewing quality is perfectly acceptable, however
probably due to the size she wouldn't want to watch a blockbuster on it.
I should also mention that my set does have a DVD player built in, so
doubtless somewhere they've made compromises, no picture up scaling for
one thing when dvd's are being played.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Thanks Ibrahim - I've got to find good sound, for me, and good picture for
my partner. I like to read up on what Which have to say, but think
sometimes especially when it comes to TVs, they get a bit obsessed with
picture perfection, but then again, what do I know <smile> -

Hi Andy.
You're probably going to think me silly for recommending this, however i
picked up a Bush 24 inch LED TV from Argos for around £170 which I use as
I don't need a big screen TV for my living room, however the sound quality
from the built in speakers is rather quite good. I'm no audiophile by any
means, however you might want to consider the bush range as if my set is
anything to go by, the sound should be perfectly acceptable. Of course if
you want anything more substantial then you should invest in a 2.1 piece
speaker system at least or a home theatre set. Incidentally my set does
have an audio description feature, it even has an AD on off button on the
remote.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Subject: [access-uk] TV with built-in AD help please
Hi all -
I'm in the market for a new TV, and have been doing some research. I
thought I had heard it said that Sony and Panasonic now come with Freeview
and AD built-in as standard? This doesn't appear to be the case in the
lower price bracket [around the 5-700 quid tag]
I have seen some Panasonics and Samsungs in that price range with AD, but
not Sony. I'm looking at Sony as I think they have the better sound
quality, but that might not be the case, and certainly looking on the
Which website, Sony sound scores 3 out of 5 at best for sound, and often
[on cheaper models] only 2 out of 5.
So, I'd appreciate some feedback on good sounding TVs [I know slim sets
these days means poorer sound generally, but would still like to know what
people think of as a reasonable sound across the range, along with
built-in Freeview and Ad.
Thanks -
Andy
