You may be able to change the language of some programs. An alternate language may 
not be available for all programs. Some programs, such as movies, indicate at the 
beginning whether an alternate language or descriptive audio is available. An alternate 
language applies only to the audio part of a program and does not change the language 
used in the menus displayed by the receiver. Descriptive audio—not included on all 
channels and programs—is a feature for the visually impaired that describes what is 
happening during a program.
