Hello, I realize this is unlikely, however, I figure I'd throw it out there. I love NextPVR, It is really great software. I am blind and I do watch TV even some programs are actually described. here is an example so you know what I am talking about.

Currently, I use NextPVR combined with Kodi (The wonderful developer Ruuk created a Kodi text to speech addon for Kodi that works really well.) Also I find NEWA to be very usable.

My wishlist is that there be a way to use NextPVR itself with text to speech software, Such as SAPI. Currently I can configure it and as I said NEWA is very handy. The only thing that seems to be missing is the program itself. I would love to see that happen someday.

Anyways, Thank you for the great program and all the time and effort you have put into it.

I found listening to that clip from The Lion King, as well as the short from Frozen that followed it, to be quite enjoyable; the narrated description was quite good and painted a fine picture in my mind. Strangely, when Simba sneezed after the dirt was sprinkled on him, I wondered "why didn't the narrator tell me Simba sneezed?", momentarily forgetting that I'd actually heard him sneeze!

I'm glad to learn that blind folks can still enjoy fine movies like The Lion King. However, if you find "Reality" TV shows don't have descriptive audio then you're better off for it!
