IIRC on DVB the audio description is carried as a secondary audio
channel in the same way that other languages are carried on multilingual
channels such as EuroNews.
Ergo any program that can select separate audio channels should work.
To test DVB-S software on the Astra 28 East constellation of satellites
(ie. Sky/Freesat), just tune to EuroNews and select a foreign language.
