Anyone aware of any significant limitations to #android #tv with a #screenReader? I currently have a tv based on FireTV but those are really few and far between in Europe, so lookingat eventual altrenatives in the #google TV space. Used to Talkback as I have an #android phone, just not sure if any significant apps are inaccessible?

@zersiax I don't know about apps, but my main complaint right now is there seems to be no way to adjust the voice. I can't even speed it up. I'm using a Sony A80L, I believe it's called, so other TVs might not have this problem. I know that's not exactly what you asked about, but for me, it's a serious enough limitation that I don't like to use the rest of the interface. My family uses an Apple TV for all our streaming instead, so I rarely interact with Google TV itself.

@alexhall @zersiax Odd, my Bravia has the same talkback and tts options as my phone, voices, speed, pitch, etc

@dhamlinmusic @zersiax Really? Maybe there was an update. We've had this for a year or so.

@alexhall @zersiax Had mine since 2020, had the options from day one, though Bravia is higher end Sony so maybe that's it.

@dhamlinmusic @zersiax Possibly. Still, I'll have to check again. At least Florian can shop without as much worry about basic speech customizations being absent.

@alexhall @dhamlinmusic @zersiax I had to change language from whatever the default was to English US to see all the different voices on the Google TV streamer, maybe it’s the same on your TV. The only app that is not accessible enough for me is Plex unfortunately.

@serrebi @alexhall @dhamlinmusic Lol amusingly my choice is mostly hemmed in by the fact I can't really do any bigger than a 50-inch, which is what I currently have. A TCL does seem best bang for buck by far, obviously that wouldn't have a system screenreader as everything is Google TV at that point. For Prime TV that has worked relatively well, so I'd be curious to see how Android TV does

@zersiax @serrebi @alexhall TCL may have a system screen reader, Google tv is just renamed android tv, they need a way for the screen reader to work outside the os and app screens.
