Audio Description won't turn off on Fox Network
Yesterday our TV suddenly started Audio Description on FOX only, We have tried all the troubleshooting and even reset box twice, but Audio Narration is still on, but seems to only be on Fox.
Audio Description shows being turned off, but still hearing it. Very annoying.
Is this a known problem?

Same. I think Fox or xfinity screwed up and passed through the audio descriptions on the wrong audio channel. It’s not our settings.

Same I'm watching the masked singer on my DVR, and hearing it there. I thought I would try and watch it on demand but the audio description is there as well it seems like it's a fox thing.

Today is 11/9. Nothing has changed,
While overall Xfinity service is good. Areas like the Fox audio description, eliminating. PC access to your account to just force you to use their App /[Edited: Language]!
Substandard for a $120 billion corporation.
How about someone from corporate read customer feedback? These probably are the loyal customers who take time to share their concerns /issues,
So Xfinity responds by ghosting everyone.
This proves Xfinity it is ad focused only with little regard to their loyal customer base.
Sad!
From a soon to ex customer

Everyone’s posts are echoes of my frustration.
This is a recent Federal Mandate. The question is …why as our extremely expensive cable provider did Comcast not properly prepare for this?? It’s ridiculous. Makes me want to ditch Comcast altogether and just get Starlink and a VPN and stream everything.

I reached out to FOX to see if they did something and their response is hysterical indicating they have no programs with audio descriptions.
Thank you for contacting FOX Support, my name is Sofia. I understand you are contacting us in regards to how to turn off the Audio description for FOX programs. I would be happy to assist you with your inquiry.
I completely understand how frustrating the audio description can be. However, we do not have audio description option in any of our programs.
If you are talking about the captions, you can turn them off following these steps:
On the web at FOX.com:
I hope this information is helpful, if you have any other question please let us know. Have a nice day!
Thank you,
FOX Support

It's ridiculous that both foc and xfinity are completely useless and can't even acknowledge there's an issue for a subset of users
