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!

Audiovault.net is the website you want. Made by and for blind folks, it has thousands of AD tracks in mp3 format. You should be able to just sync them with the video. Though blind folks never bother; we only care about audio anyway.

Thank you so much! We'll check it out. Yeah, we are quite well versed with editing so we should be able to chop it in to the pre existing tacks and/or add it as another track in the file itself.

Not sure what you mean by only caring about audio anyway. Would you like to explain?

When watching a movie or tv show by ourselves, blind people can’t see the picture. So unless we are watching with a sighted friend, we would rather save on storage and bandwidth by only downloading the audio.

Oh, that makes sense. Thank you so much for explaining!
