[Electronics-Talk] Amazon on Apple TV

[Mike Sedmak]

The amazon prime video app is accessible on appleTv.
You can also get audio description for shows like "Man in the High Castle".
The first version of the app does not automatically enable audio
descriptions, you need to start the show, pause it, then use the
remote to swipe down to the pause menu, swipe right to get to audio,
slect it to open the sub menu, then select the _second_ english audio
track.  It is not labeled correctly, but the second english audio
track is actually the described audio track.

Note, all the above is based on my usage of a 4th gen apple tv.

Hope that helps,
Mike
