The Accessible Channel (TAC-TV) , operated by Accessible Media Incorporated (AMI), is a national digital television network broadcasting popular movies and TV shows. TAC-TV is the first and only network to broadcast all programs with closed captioning and open description. Settings do not need to be adjusted to activate the description. Described video provides a voice overlay to the program audio track which describes key visual elements not apparent in the original soundtrack. To blind and partially sighted Canadians, it is the equivalent of closed captioning.
