  • chris_sucksmith Chris (@chris_sucksmith) reported from East Cowes, England

    One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

    @FreeviewAdvice I live in North West London but I don’t get London Live on freeview. I’ve tried rescanning my channels but it doesn’t come up. Can you fix this?

  • Toasty83 Dean (@Toasty83) reported

    @creag123 @goldchannel Absolutely agree, Gold would be a great addition, Sure it's not the same channel it used to be, But there could be a fix, Extend the gold brand to drama, Include gold comedy. And gold itself in its original form to Freeview, with the spin offs left with subscription TV

  • AboutEG About East Grinstead (@AboutEG) reported

    Poor Freeview reception here this morning, especially on BBC channels. Atmospheric conditions?

  • 1Spookybooks Spookybooks (@1Spookybooks) reported

    @newt_kiters I guess when I get round to actually get sky, I won’t need a dish or a set-top box or anything. I’m assuming it will come straight through the TV through the Internet. The trouble is I don’t watch a lot of TV I’m usually listening to music or out walking. Only Freeview

  • SophFigueira95 Sophie. ⚓💙 (@SophFigueira95) reported

    Usually use my actual Freeview but think the temperamental weather is causing a few breaking up issues. 🙄😒 Definitely think I'm in a bit of a delay. #BeyondParadise

  • FrannyJeffers72 FJ72 🇬🇧 (@FrannyJeffers72) reported

    @ramsay_wmramsay @MattSTKS @CraigMurrayOrg I would prefer it was on Sky or freeview TV. The issue here is with UEFA and the SFA as they are in charge of the TV rights. The UK or Scottish Government have no control over it.

  • KaihatsuYT Kaihatsu (@KaihatsuYT) reported

    Personally, I'm not particularly bothered by it all. I've not had a particular interest in Pokémon for a while, but I never watched the anime much as a kid. I never saw it on TV in the UAE and it never seemed to be on Freeview in the UK on a regular schedule either.

  • mikeasharp Mike Sharp (@mikeasharp) reported

    @Channel4 can you fix the uplink. England match keeps going pixelated like it does on a satellite feed. Watching on Freeview HD

  • FrannyJeffers72 FJ72 🇬🇧 (@FrannyJeffers72) reported

    @Joketamsonswean @BertieThompso18 @CraigMurrayOrg The original post from Craig is certainly trying to suggest. If you have an issue with Scotland games being on ViaPlay (I'd much prefer they were on Sky or Freeview TV aswell) then you should really direct your anger towards UEFA and the SFA.

    Fellow neuroimagers! My RA has a Mac and I'm a PC user. On my end, freeview opens with no problems. On her end, she gets the message "Segmentation fault". IT has tried to help to no avail. Is there some Mac secret that y'all can share? Thank you! @FreeSurferMRI
