    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

    @CrabbyValiant @back_the_BBC That's starting to change: Anyone with a Sky Glass TV no longer needs to turn over, as the HD service is fully regionalised. Virgin Media and iPlayer users are up next for the upgrade. Sky, Freesat and Freeview due to be upgraded before the end of 2022.

    @TalkingPicsTV @tptvpodcast Hi, I’m wondering if you are showing ‘Tim Driscoll’s Donkey’ again any time soon? I started watching it yesterday but got dragged away to help with a plumbing job … and 3.5 hrs later the Freeview box had given up!! 🙄 Thanks!!!!! 🐴🇮🇪

  • LaughtonAlan Alan Bromley (@LaughtonAlan) reported

    @freesat_tv The problem is that the new FreeSat boxes are CRAP. We gave up on ours and just watch Freeview

    @GBNEWS @GBNEWS Are you aware the lip sync on Freeview has been really bad this evening? I hope it can be fixed.

  • OsullivanUk Mike O'Sullivan (@OsullivanUk) reported

    @googlenesthelp Hey Google... No, nothing like that at all. Just an old (Humax) Freeview recorder, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and a (non-smart) Panasonic blu-ray player. All powered off at time of issue. Couple of other people raised it as issue a few days ago on the Google TV forum also.
