This page lists DVDs or streaming videos with audio description tracks available from sources other than Amazon, stores, or the primary streaming services. For example, some of these films were featured in Film Festivals but didn't make it to local cinemas, while others are from streaming services with very few offerings. All titles below are listed in the Master AD List. We rely primarily on contributions from video owners or users who discover these videos, as it is hardly a comprehensive list. See our Streaming AD page for other possible sources of described streamed videos. (For example, we list a limited number of videos here available on Vimeo and YouTube. Clicking either of the preceding links will list their described videos.) "Fee" after the video information indicates there is a rental or purchase fee. To suggest additions to our list, use the Webmaster link at the bottom of the page.
LAST TITLE UPDATE:Sep 7, 2023; count = 52 titles (listed below, but not counting ReelAbilities Stream or Pluto TV titles, listed separately). Other content update: Sep 19, 2023. Look for

PBS Streaming Service (Free and Fee)PBS, the Public Broadcasting System, offers an app which gives the user access to two levels of service: Free and Passport. The Passport level is available to people who make monthly ($5 or more) or annual ($60 or more) contributions to PBS. PBS does not offer you or us any listing of what shows have audio description tracks, so we can't list them. Most of the shows with AD are probably at the Passport level. Since PBS service is offered at a state or regional level, you need to specify your location before viewing details at www.pbs.org. |
