I don't know for sure since I don't have FiOS service where I <BR>live (rats!
wish there was). There's a chance that your problem is <BR>addressed with the
accessibility feature update. I imagine there is a <BR>hotline to call about
accessibility issues. By calling them, they might <BR>be able to better provide
a fix/answer to your question/problem.<BR><BR>I'm simply passing some
information that I believe the members of the <BR>list might find
useful/helpful...<BR><BR>-------- Original Message --------<BR>From: Eileen

Accessibility Features<BR><BR>Mario,<BR><BR>I have Phios for my TV, Internet
& Phone service, but I am not sure what <BR>is considered the Video
Subscription Service. Is this a feature that <BR>allows for the ordering of
movies/programs and watching? I do have DVS <BR>feature enabled on the TV, but
what makes me insane is when I get <BR>broadcasts in spanish language because of
the fact that I have my DVS <BR>on. I cannot switch between putting DVS on/off
without sighted <BR>assistance. Do you know if this will make that ability
easier to use so <BR>I can watch all programs of my choosing in English and
switch off the <BR>DVS option?<BR><BR>Eileen<BR><BR><BR>From: Mario Brusco via

Communications recently launched a resource page for its newly<BR>upgraded FiOS
accessible video subscription service. The page provides<BR>information on FiOS
text-to-speech functionality, which was pushed out<BR>to subscribers during a
recent software update throughout the Verizon<BR>network.<BR>The upgraded
accessibility features are part of the changes made through<BR>the 21st Century
Communications & Video Accessibility Act (CVAA), which<BR>requires<BR>cable
providers to make their navigation systems accessible for<BR>customers who are
blind and visually impaired. These features are<BR>currently available on most
FiOS systems. To learn more about the<BR>accessibility upgrades, including steps
on how to activate such<BR>features,
