Yo Mark, First of all, I learned about this configuration partly from desperately experimenting with it and also just plain trying this and that till I found it. Sometimes that's what you've just got to do in lue of an instruction manual right? Anyhow, to get now to your other questions.
1. Most major cable networks now offer some level of audio description. Here are just a few examples: a: TCM. B: USA. C: TrueTV D: TBS: E: TNT. Now, as for your phone, you will not need to turn off 5.1 channel sound due to the fact that it's not part of your phone' s normal sound compliment. One very important detail to bear in mind. This applies to both your Apple TV box and phone. If you want a channel to play audio description, you must first tune to that channel and then go down till you hear "networks. Then go left till you hear "settings". Press this then make sure you are all the way to the left where the audio settings are. On your phone, it's done a little differently. There's a menu with subtitles and audio that you double click. Once on that screen, you want then to insure you are focused on the audio menu. Go from there. Keep in mind that even after you press on for audio description, it will not stay that way. IF you tune away from a channel, you must follow the steps before to get audio description to play again.
