# WebTV 5.2 Q2 '22

## Overview

This release introduces the following new features on WebTV for DIVA 5.2, supporting Generic TV (web browsers), Samsung - Tizen, and LG - WebOS.

## What's new

### Accessibility features

We’ve developed further WebTV accessibility features to make DIVA Player as usable and accessible as possible. New features include:

### Alternate input methods

Introducing alternative device support on WebTV. Alternate devices help users with disabilities by offering a common, comfortable, and flexible option to navigate and interact with DIVA Player, other than the default remote. Read our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article for more information, and to learn about other features.

### Tab navigation

Introducing a more simplified and linear way to navigate the DIVA Player UI. Helping users with visual impairments and disabilities, tab navigation involves using the *tab key* on a keyboard or the *L1 (left)* and *R1 (right) bumpers* on a gamepad to move forward and backward through the app. Learn more in our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article.

### Shortcuts

Now supporting a direct way to access specific functions, features, modules, and components within DIVA Player using keyboard keys or gamepad control. Read our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article for more information.

### Badges

DIVA supports video list item badges to visually indicate further accessibility support for content before a selection is made. Video list items display an “AD” badge if an Audio Description track is available and a “CC” badge if at least one Closed Captions track is supported.

Check out our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article for more information on badges. For more feature information, read our [Subtitles and captioning](/v1/docs/subtitles-and-captioning), and [Alternate audio tracks](/v1/docs/alternate-audio-tracks) articles.

### Screen opacity

We’ve made significant visibility improvements, meaning users can now control the semi-opacity design on specific UI (User Interface) elements, helping to increase the contrast between the text and the background. Screen opacity is controlled via the Settings panel.

*Example showing opacity enabled and disabled:*

### Subtitles and Captioning enhancements

We’ve enhanced the display of Subtitles and Captioning for better visibility, clarity, and sharpness of text. DIVA users can now *enlarge the text by 25%* and *enable high contrast mode*, turning the text background opaque for clearer readability. Read our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article for more information and our [Subtitles and captioning](/v1/docs/subtitles-and-captioning) article for further feature information.

*Example showing text size increased by 25%:*

### Text-to-Speech (TTS)

DIVA users can now take advantage of the Text-to-Speech (TTS) screen reader, providing audible descriptions of specific events and interactive UI elements. TTS generates a voice description upon receiving focus, stating the name, purpose, status, and expected outcome of an action. Enabled at an operating system (OS) level, TTS can help users apply Subtitles and Captioning, audio tracks, and HDR settings, as well as informing users of when advertisements end and recognizing video list item badges. For more information, read our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article.

### Custom input reactions

Introducing the ability for integrators to implement a voice command system or other custom inputs, such as gestures, that helps users navigate and interact with DIVA Player for basic commands. Read more in our [Accessibility](/v1/docs/accessibility) article.
