Once you know which button to use on the new TV's remote. you can count key presses there too. Just as long as you do the opposite to return to the normal TV mode.

Thanks. Enabling the port or getting to it on the TV is going to be the tough 
thing. No idea how to do that without sighted help. I figured there would be 
some step that wasn’t doable here.

They do give good instructions on how to enable VO if it’s not speaking, as in 
how many presses of each arrow key to go up, down, left or right, on the apple 
support pages.

Jenine,
   Couple things. First you need to switch the TV to that port the Apple TV is 
connected to.

   Then, if after waiting a while, Apple TV is not speaking, you need to enable 
Voiceover manually. You will need sighted help. There is a Settings app on the 
Apple TV menu, find that and go to General then Accessibility. Its a familiar 
environment, so you should not have any trouble with setting it up.

I bought an Apple TV Third Generation back in February, yeah I know.

I’m now trying to set it up sans any visual help, on my new LG TV.

We’ve had the TV running on cable and I thought I could just plug in the Apple 
TV to the HDMI connector and power supply and Voila, it would talk and ask me 
if I wanted VO activated.

It does nothing discernible.

I’m sure there’s something I’m not doing correctly here. I tried disconnecting 
the cable from the TV and that didn’t work.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.
