[Electronics-Talk] Accessible TV

[carcione at access.net]

Currently, my accessibility to my TV is built into the cable box, which is
getting pretty old, but I'm afraid to switch to the "latest and greatest"
because the schmoes at the cable company can't tell me if the new box is
accessible. 

Am I right in thinking that, if I get a TV with voice guidance built in,
like a small Samsung, that it won't matter what cable box is plugged into
it?  

Or, alternatively, I see that Youtube TV has most of the channels I want on
it, and Youtube is built into Amazon Fire TVs, according to the AccessOn
podcast.  Can I play audio descriptions on Youtube TV?  If so, can I turn it
on so they automatically play if they're available?

 

And if people have other remarks about TV accessibility, I'm interested.
