    @BBCNews Many in the north east have had freeview outage since 10th August and won’t return until 5th October. Bit bigger story than a few minutes on Saturday !! #bilsdale

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Channel 4 on satellite is working (if you want to watch Deadpool 2). Problems persist on Freeview in some regions - this is because of the way C4 is distributed on terrestrial TV. Example C4 SD: E Mids Freeview: blank screen with 4 logo top left. North East Freeview: normal.

    Freeview 4HD is fine but it’s already half way through ‘All the Money’ so wanted to watch on 4+1 in SD Oh wait we got adverts on 4+1 Ah it’s gone again, ah no wait got the announcer but black screen… Seems they’re aware of the issues

    @GothboyUK @Channel4 @SkyHelpTeam C4 has had problems all evening. Still off air in HD on Freeview here.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Why S4C has been affected on Freeview: S4C playout is at the new BBC Cymru Wales HQ in Cardiff. But the feed gets sent to London to be combined with Channel 4's Freeview service. The finished multiplex is sent to Welsh transmitters. The fire in London messed things up.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @danmooreradio It appears at least C5 has a back-up feed. C4 is restored - i.e. there is a working feed around. The problem now appears to be in the distribution chain for Freeview's D3&4 (PSB2) multiplex.

    @FreeviewAdvice Oh Freeview help page not there

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @danmooreradio Fire at Red Bee. That's had an impact on playout, on continuity and for Freeview viewers, multiplexing issues (why services have been off for longer on Freeview than on satellite).

  • eddsirr Edd Sirr (@eddsirr) reported

    @JBlairSco @Gwyn_Dr @S4C There is probably an issue with having a ‘commercial’ channel on a BBC multiplex as well. It would make more sense, S4C would be able to broadcast to England too - and would restore Great Movies Classics in Wales on Freeview too.

    All Freeview @Channel4 stations have just crashed! Never had that happen before.
