Assistance as if sight-impaired - how to turn off?

I don't know what button I pushed, but my Roku now vocalizes everything that I do. For example, it will read out loud the program description you see on the screen.

I did this quite by accident. How do I turn it off?

    All it takes to turn that is pressing the option * key four times. You try pressing it again four times to turn off. Or go into the settings> Accessibility> screen reader> off

     

    If you don't want it to happen again, you can disable the short cut, (which is pressing the option * four times) for good:

     

    settings> accessibility> short cut> disable
