    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    @PropertyBrother I’ve watched your programme sitting in England since it was shown on freeview. I’ve noticed you never seem to make design choices which need to be rectified. Do you ever choose stuff wrong?

    Awwww gaaaad, got sky glass in the living room; not kitchen and bedroom freeview don’t work. Any low cost solution? TIA.

    @FreeviewAdvice I've already done this and you said to contact Restore tv so I think it's just freeview that is rubbish as I'm always having problems even though i have a filter fitted

  • KelsterWelster Kelly (@KelsterWelster) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Having trouble with my upstairs Sky box. Sounds coming on but screen is black. Nothing wrong with telly as I can get on Freeview and Netflix etc directly on the TV so it's definitely the Sky box. Any ideas?

  • feetsby Colin Troy 🇺🇦 (@feetsby) reported

    @NMBCo @hardistymark Pretty sure East Midlands Today is a standard definition signal slapped into an HD channel. Just got freeview to save money, back to the ol’ ‘High Def not available in your area’ message. If we want to see our news broadcasters in high def, we have to see them down the pub.

  • daval13 Alma Masters (@daval13) reported

    @stevemulder888 @BBC1 Yes same problem have switched to freeview

  • Wyfan2 The Wilder Way - Patrick Wymark Boardroom (@Wyfan2) reported

    @RosalynConnors @RodneyMarshall1 You tell me..I've had Freeview freeze and black out like a signal problem before, but this seemed to be a continuous freeze frame right after saying, "shoot the first man that moves" (like a prank) and then a smooth cut to the next scene.

  • MartinMolloy6 Martin Molloy (@MartinMolloy6) reported

    @jane_2504 @adehodges Yep but I cannot get channel 11 on Freeview. Something to do with the signal.
