Good evening everyone,
And some of those folks are learning the language. We're drifting away from
what we're supposed to be about cutting the cord not about whether folks who
come to this country should learn English or not. Please take that
discussion to a more appropriate list. Thank you.

What the problem is though, is it is just simple language translation, not
Spanish DVS.
They need to learn English, and providing this only removes an incentive to
learn English, and I believe it is their responsibility, or anyone's
responsibility, to learn the language of the country they are living in.

Peter, I agree, but if a person only speaks english, then we should be
given, the choice to have the dvs track in english, rather then in spanish.

Hello everyone,
Not everyone speaks English. We shouldn't demand a service like DVS
on SAP by denying others the right to hear spoken dialogue in their native
language.

Spanish on DVS in this country, the U.S. that is, should be banned.
DVS should be the only thing allowed on SAP.
They can learn English, we can't learn to see.
Maybe now would be a good time to have Congress enact such a law.

Hi we have the contour 2 box from Cox communications since our area is
very unstable for an antena. Well with the box, if you leave the audio
description turned on and you change channels then it stays on.
Sometimes if there is not an audio described program on then it will
switch to spanish. That has happened to us sometimes. When the NFL
games are on either CBS or Fox they run the games in spanish.
When this happenes, then we just press the voice button and tell the
box to turn of the audio description and then it switches the program
into english.
