Hello, we were wondering if there’s a place to either get more tracks for movies and television shows etc so that they are accessible, i.e. Audio Descriptions.

We know some people that find anything lacking an audio description track inaccessible and so were wondering if there was a place we could go to get them or if there is a place where they are already included in the file.

Thanks so much!

    Ah, okay. Thanks for letting us know! We’ll look into qxr.

    Yeah, it seems like for pirate groups accessibility isn’t really a pirority sadly.

    Guess I’ll just have to do it myself. Hopefully eventually there might be something like open subtitles but for descriptive tracks.

    About the time frame — that’s fine, since it seems like those people mostly want to watch recent movies.

      Be the change you want to see in the world. If you are buying some disks anyway for the accessible tracks, you should rip and release them for others.

      Sharing is caring.

        Ah, I barely buy discs nowadays, but if I do I will and I’ll do the same with the discs we already have.

      Just be thoughtful. Accessibility is not seen as an excuse for breaking copyright. Take precautions.

      Also if you’ve never done audio editing I’ll mention audacity the editor has a tool called “auto duck” that’s perfect for lowering the volume of other tracks in a mix when your select track with your voiceover makes noise To enhance clarity of it.
