Select a Freeview or Freesat channel with Audio Description.
Go to the Sound menu
Select the Audio Description sub menu
Select the Audio Description item (first in list)
Toggle AD on or off.

do you mean the banner doesn't disappear after 5 seconds or so when you change channel ??

No , i mean the "Audio" Description . The "Audio" Description in dvb mode of the telly ..
In Freesat "Audio" Description doesnt come on , it's only when the tv is in dvb you can "hear Audio" Description

I dont fully understand that. That means to me that the Tv talks to you when you change channel !

Anyway looking at manual & you are on a DVB channel have you pressed the ' N ' button on the remote control ?? Its on the very bottom

Ok I now see it does exactly that !!

On page 29 of Manual it tells you that you have to switch TV speakers to ON to hear it through tv ( audio description ) or headphones ( on ) to hear through headphones. Put both to OFF

On page 32 gives you better description , go to Vierra main menu , scroll down to SOUND then scroll down & keep going to 2nd page on tv screen. Select AUDIO DESCRIPTION then Access , then put Audio Description , headphones & Speakers to off
