  • International Context for Audio Description
    Audio Description in the International Context Prepared for Parliamentarians by Vision Australia and Media Access Australia. Purpose: This brief was produced to provide updated information to Parliamentarians on the delivery and regulation of audio described (AD) television content within the international context. This brief follows an event and meetings, held at the Australian Parliament House in September 2015, to discuss the urgent need for audio description to be mandated on Australian television. The brief includes a short description of audio description on television in 15 countries as well as some general information on audio description standards and accessible TV networks. Availability of Audio Described television internationally United Kingdom At present, the UK has the highest amount of AD content on television of any other country. AD television quotas are regulated by the Office of Communications through The Communications Act 20031, which requires that 10% of television content be AD depending on the size of the channel and the content available. Some channels have voluntarily exceeded this by providing up to 20% AD content. AD programs are advertised within the digital TV guide. Audio cues, such as beeps, also indicate when AD is available for a particular program. United States AD was first broadcast on national television in the US in the late 1980s. In July 2000, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ordered the four big TV networks and the five biggest cable networks to show 50 hours of audio described programs, per quarter, by April 2002. The FCC’s power to do this was challenged by the Motion Picture Association, and the challenge was eventually upheld.

In January 1950 the committee was reconstituted, this time to decide about color television, and in March 1953 it unanimously approved what is now called simply the NTSC color television standard.

  • A Preview of the Television Video and Audio – a Ready Reference for Engineers Course
    A Preview of the Television Video and Audio – a Ready Reference for Engineers Course About the Author Randy Hoffner is retired from ABC Broadcast Operations and Engineering West Coast, where he held the position of Manager of Technology and Quality Control. Prior to 2006, Hoffner spent a number of years at ABC BOE New York, where he worked on advanced television projects including HDTV and early film-to-720p video transfers, accomplished using data telecine transfer techniques. Before joining ABC, Hoffner spent 15 years at NBC, New York, where he worked on technology development projects, including early HDTV work, and held the positions of Director of Research and Development and Director of Future Technology. He also played a large role in the transition of the NBC Television Network and local NBC television stations to stereo broadcasting. He twice received the NBC Technical Excellence Award. Hoffner is a Fellow of SMPTE, and has served the Audio Engineering Society as Convention Chairman and Vice President, Eastern Region, US and Canada. He has authored a number of technical papers presented at SMPTE and AES conventions, and published in their respective Journals. For many years he has written a column, “Technology Corner”, for the trade publication TV Technology. Introduction The purpose of this course is to give the television engineer a solid grounding in the various aspects of video and audio for television, and to serve as a ready reference to the pertinent standards. This course provides an overview of video and audio for television, from the dawn of analog television broadcasting to today’s digital television transmission.
