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

    The incident originally resulted in a Freeview multiplex configuration glitch when E4 was broadcast in place of S4C in Wales. During the last 24 hours, ITV and Channel 5 have been glitching in some regions while other services on the multiplex were fine.

    @jsquires1990 @SkyHelpTeam ‘One cord’ went out the window as soon as the channel list was put online. Not all Freeview channels available… so an aerial would be needed. Awful product.

  • HayleyJaneLyon2 Hayley Jane Lyon (@HayleyJaneLyon2) reported

    @ITV Are you having issues with your ITV freeview channels this afternoon? All are currently pixelated. Other channels are ok. Please advise? Thanks

  • IronMask75 IronMask75 (@IronMask75) reported

    @FreeviewAU @FinancialReview There's an issue with this service that, if you change the channel and there is no program information, the banner remains on screen forever. Only way to remove is to hit green button to open Freeview guide, then hit back, then exit. Sony Bravia X95G.

    @LauGoesToLondon Does it help improve your Freeview signal? I'm due my third dose sometime this month (hopefully)

  • FlappyBerk Christian (@FlappyBerk) reported

    @RealBlackIrish @uncanted The current ITV issue is likely a consequence of digital terrestrial infrastructure being held together with bubblegum and hope, since it's only effecting Freeview. I don't think there's a huge conspiracy to normalise the loss of Tipping Point repeats for an afternoon.

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

    There have been multiple reports of issues with the Freeview multiplex carrying ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 in standard definition. Different areas have been affected in different ways, but some services have been garbled/distorted,

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

    (Since 25th September, Channel 4's Freeview services have been running at lower bitrates on all other transmitters in the country, following the Red Bee Media incident.)

  • MarkThorndyke Mark Thorndyke (@MarkThorndyke) reported

    Why hasn't the BBC got a +1 on any sky/Freeview? Why have they so many "Radio" stations funded by this license we never listen to? WAY to many! Why is the #BBC shite? Any decent show is by another company in reality The BBC is dying and needs to go as the talent CAN go elsewhere

  • TheDoctor2058 Anthony 🏳️‍🌈🎵 (@TheDoctor2058) reported

    so according to the freeview website a majority of people will get the signal back on wednesday. Whether or not that includes yours truly is a matter of time.
