  • tiggerwheeks Anna (@tiggerwheeks) reported

    @cpresland74 @Channel4 Same on freeview and recordings are terrible - cmon @Channel4 pls sort your sound out on HD and HD recordings.

  • richard_of_yore ℜ𝔦𝔠𝔥𝔞𝔯𝔡 𝔬𝔣 𝔜𝔬𝔯𝔢 (@richard_of_yore) reported

    @Outside_Margina @Channel4 Try obtaining Film on 4 or other channels with a 4 in the name on Freeview. Technical problems are ongoing.

  • planet_leesti Words of Planet Leesti (@planet_leesti) reported

    @Traceyspacey1 Odd. Tho. In the olde days when I had Freeview in the house, a) the Freeview folks were surprised I could get it at all for where i was, but b) we picked up a transmitter near Scunthorpe. I never got local radio at all, it was always Yorkshire based. So definitely consistent!

  • mickybnovels Michael Coatsworth-Burdess (@mickybnovels) reported

    @FreeviewTV is freeview down? No signal or channels during retune

  • etmuse Erin (@etmuse) reported

    @burntcopper if your aerial is crap then I think freeview would also struggle as regular freeview is through the aerial. And you can get freeview boxes that can record.

  • holmesmichael Michael Holmes (@holmesmichael) reported

    @Channel4 is there still an issue with the sound on freeview? It sounds like it’s being broadcast in mono and not stereo.

  • Nolascana Mitani Hart (@Nolascana) reported

    @redial999 @MayerAgain @tvlicensing * I am aware of freeview, but frankly that service is shockingly bad in some areas, to the point where BBC itself isn't available in bad weather, which, frankly defeats the point. On a good day there's like...8 channels broadcast from tower the aerial is pointed at.

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

    (/2) ...you risk losing your Sky EPG slot, at least temporarily. Note that E4+1 is showing an off air caption on Freeview, but it's running normally on satellite. If it was the other way, there would be trouble.

  • FB_BMB Mathew Buck (@FB_BMB) reported

    I do feel sorry for Channel 4, who 2 days after the Red Bee fire evacuation that caused catastrophic falls off the air for a number of UK channels, still have technical issues: the audio on the HD Freeview version sounds like it has been inverted and playing in the wrong speakers

  • Camwoj145 Cameron Young (@Camwoj145) reported

    @cleanfeed_ttvr @Channel4 @channel5_tv I know not a huge issue but how long has C4's DOG been off? Watching in sd on freeview.
