@Alyssacandace, if it's a voice reading text that appears on the screen, that's the "screen reader" which is only active when you're not playing a video. If it's a narrator describing what's happening during a video for the visually impaired, that's part of the audio track. Press * while you're watching a video and choose a different track.
But more and more channels are not using the Roku default but substituting their own method of access -- I'm guessing this is so they will have consistent controls with versions of their app running on platforms other than Roku. Often these options are accessed by pressing the up and/or down cursor control keys while viewing the program to pop the channel's own control options on the screen.

The virtual part of your hybrid event is broadcast online to your social media channels or to a web page with an embedded video player. Your remote audience tunes in at a specific time to watch the online broadcast. After the live stream ends, the recording of the stream can be streamed on demand.
Watch parties are a smart choice for organizations trying to reach an audience that is located in separate geographic areas. During a watch party hybrid event, your program is live streamed from one location and watched by in-person groups in other locations. Everyone enjoys the shared experience. Watch party ideas include:
Think of your hybrid event as a live television show being filmed in front of a studio audience. The set will be lit and cameras placed on the stage to ensure a high-production livestream. Additional cameras around the room will highlight guest reactions and pre-show entertainment. Your in-person and online audiences can interact and share the event experience through live chat and branded hashtags on social media. After the livestream program concludes, the in-room audience can stay and enjoy an after-party celebration. This is a great option for organizations with audiences that are equally interested in attending in person and attending remotely.
Rather than positioning cameras and lighting on the stage to create a behind-the-scenes experience, your camera operator is positioned at the back of the room during a Window into the Room style hybrid event. This is a great option for increasing accessibility at seminars and conferences.
Your emcee can pre-record the virtual event in the studio and broadcast the recording at the same time as the live event is hosted. This type of hybrid event reduces the stress on your event team on event day and can magically allow your emcee to be in two places at once.
The studio comes to you for an on-location live stream hybrid event. Your AV production team sets up the lights, cameras and streaming equipment on site. This is a good option for companies that want to showcase a new facility and live stream to watch parties at satellite offices.
One consideration for hybrid fundraising events is if there will be a silent auction. Many nonprofits now host their silent auctions through online bidding platforms such as Greater Giving, SchoolAuction.net, and Auctria. This option gives both the in-person audience and the online audience the opportunity to participate. Do not live stream a live auction. Instead, feature the live auction as a special feature for only the in-person audience.
We began to use robotic cameras at hybrid events in 2021. These small-stature remote camera systems deliver high-quality video, often from perspectives not possible with a traditional camera setup. The small footprint of these cameras will place your at-home audience close to the in-room action without compromising space in the venue.
A single technician operates the robo cams at a central computer, controlling every movement with a joystick. Footage can be instantly fed into the live stream of the hybrid event. Robotic cameras have been used to capture the action in movies, television news, music videos, and sports for years. For your hybrid events, we use our robo cams to film from multiple locations and multiple camera angles.
Online video has hit an overall high. Companies have realized the power of video. They want to use all of their resources to try to harness the power of video so that they can maximize its potential online. As per the latest online video industry analysis, video helps to brand your company and gets your message to the masses. It gives you the ability to speak directly to your target audience without even being there.
Likewise, people have become mobile. They want to take their video with them everywhere. Mobile technology, apps, and web servers have taken us into the new age. This means that people expect to get things faster. They want their food, their shopping, their music, and their video to all be delivered at lightning speeds.
Another one of the interesting and surprising video industry trends is that video ads are increasing in number. You would think that people would not wait around to hear the ads in their mad rush to get through the material as fast as possible. However, surveys show that people will watch an average of 6 minutes of video, even when some of the time is spent with ads. They also click through video ads more often than other types of ads. According to Points Group publication, the average CTR for video ads is currently 1.84%, the highest in the industry.
Google has been developing a new concept of indexing apps that will make businesses more prominent by placing them into strategically-chosen categories. This app indexing will help promote the app industry, online video, and other media that can be optimized for mobile. This means businesses need to find ways to reach their mobile audience faster and better than ever before.
Virtual reality is a technology that has lurked in the shadows for many years. But this year many predict it will become a mainstream technology. People have demanded more and more intense content and video that allows them to experience video up close and personal. As these trends take center stage, the video will be needed more to fill the need of virtual reality fanatics who demand better video experiences.
In 2016 and beyond, people will start to wear more wearable technology, including video glasses, on-the-wall holograms, and smart watches that show movies in the air. There are many interesting changes going on with the wearable technology industry, and video is sure to be in the forefront of these changes.
The animated video is already a popular medium. Recent polls show that video ads are more popular than any other type of media for business advertising. Animations allow you to create virtually any scene you want with the aid of some animation software and an idea. Unlike doing a talking head video or another type that requires actors and props, you can set up a scene that represents your brand with animations. Explainer videos, as well as corporate videos and ads, can all be done with carefully thought-out animations that capture the attention (and imagination) of your viewers. Also, animated video is more successful online than other forms of video.
An interesting video trend pointed out by Reel Marketer is those elements of nature such as earth, the wind, fire and water are the most popular videos being sought out by the masses. This is an interesting trend to note. It is not known whether this is due to the beautiful images of landscapes that draw people or their sense of adventure in possibly going there.
Perhaps it is the sign of the times (due to so much recent violence in the media), but people are becoming more attracted to tranquil scenes in nature. Scenes such as a placid lake at sunset, a tree frog sitting on a flower, or a lone motorcyclist on a dusty road, seem to be drawing the numbers.
Finally, another recent trend in the video world is the fact that people like designing backgrounds that mix the old with the new. Traditional colors and patterns are highlighted by modern solid colors that complement each other, in spite of their differences. These eclectic trends may somehow echo the ambivalence of the world, the state of affairs in the media, or just a tendency to want to go back awhile and remember.
Whatever the case, the trends in video and media are interesting, to say the least, and they may set the state for a further change in the future regarding the mobile video, video marketing, and other tools.
