As Michael said, you do need an actual television to use the apple TV.

You need a TV with an HDMI input. At first Iduna think I would like the
Apple TV, but it is nice being able to find a movie on my own, that sounds
interesting to me, and not everyone else.

Thanks

Not knowing anything about Apple TV, do you need an Apple TV to watch Flix
stuff and can you use an Apple TV as stand alone i.e. not needing a
traditional TV? I could have bought an Apple TV when ordering my I Mac but
didn't. Can I use an APPLE Tv as standlone with my I Mac?  If so, then I'll
get one and subscribe to flix.

What box for the tv setup? My guess is that it won't, unless it supports

AirPlay.

I personally think the apple tv is the best option for Netflix myself.

That's amazing, glad you had such a good experience with that.  I have a

question I was hoping you or someone else on here could answer though sense

I don't yet have an acount with them.

Do you absolutely have to have an Apple TV with them in order in order for

their matter to be accessible with a TV?  In other words, will their IPhone

app work in conjunction with the box they use with the TV settup, or is the

apple TV a must?

Hi all.

 

I have just chatted with the Netflix team regarding better accessibility,

and that was an awesome and really exciting experience.

The chat works so amazingly well, so I have never seem anything like this

before. perfectly accessible with VOiceover in Safari.

The whole Netflix team is extremely friendly, and they do care about

accessibility, and take my requests very seriously. I have requested

accessibility when watching movies and tv shows on their website, because

the Microsoft Silver light program is totally inaccessible. I requested

better accessibility on Windows as well, and told them that I find their

website very accessible with all screenreaders.

I reported an issue with their Netflix app for iPhone, where I can't

select a new movie. When I dubble tab on a new video, the previous video I

saw just started to play.

I told them how well Netflix works on the Apple tv, and that's the reason

for I just have paied a new subscription.

I requested audio descriptions as well, since I can't buy that here in

Denmark, and BBC who have audio described movies in their online BBC player

won't let me buy a sucscription, and they even blog all IP addresses outside

the UK, so I have to do that in ileagle ways if I wanna get audio described

movies and stuff.

 

The Netflix team told me that they take this accessibility request very

serious, and they will do what they can do to make it all more accessible

for everyone. They said that all accessibility requests from blind and

visually impaired people are very welcome.

So, guys, please, go to netflix.com or whatever the Netflix address is in

your country, and let the team know that we are here, and we want better

accessibility in Netflix, and audio description as well. Netflix is as far

as I know, the biggest online movie streaming service in the world, which

offers their service in most countries in the world. The best and most

exciting thing is that they are so friendly and take the accessibility

requests so seriously. So please, take your time to let our voices heard if

you want better accessibility. Damn I can't keep my arms down. :) I am so

excited for next year and to see what they can come up with.

I hope to hear about your experiences regarding to contacting the team.

Have an awesome day.

Best regards:

Søren Jensen
