Descriptive Video Service

Descriptive Video Service (DVS) is an audio feature that provides additional narration for visually impaired viewers. It describes key visual elements of a film or TV show—like actions, settings, and facial expressions—during natural pauses in the dialogue. This narration helps the listener understand what’s happening on screen, enhancing their viewing experience. DVS is typically available through specialized audio channels or devices and is an important accessibility tool that makes visual media more inclusive for people with visual impairments.
