    @FreeviewAdvice Freeview on my TV has not been working properly since start of 2022. Constant buffering etc on BBC, itv, all4, YouTube etc (some channels don't work at all) but works fine on normal channels/ xbox app on same tv. Tried following support on webiste (retuning etc).

  • Flic_Kitty Kitty (@Flic_Kitty) reported

    @PeterTatchell Ah yes, the BBC have blocked all other TV channels, all access to freeview, freesat, Sky, Now TV, Netflix, Prime, Brit Box and every other TV and film service in the country. They've also burned all books, DVDs, radios, and blocked Spotify, Deezer etc. Pillock.

  • Colin08302719 Colin (@Colin08302719) reported

    @GBNEWS Sacked and a years hard labour. They need to dedicate their lives to charity causes and never be seen again. I have removed ITV from freeview.

  • Eclectic_otter This year, give her English muffins (@Eclectic_otter) reported

    Watching the Scotland vs Ukraine game I’d forgotten how terrible SD freeview looks. #FirstWorldProblems

  • Platypuss Louise (@Platypuss) reported

    @TPTVEncore How do I get talking Pictures on Freeview? I have tried finding it but the channel does not come up. I have scanned the TV and restarted but still no luck, can anyone help?

  • jamestestarossa James Turner (@jamestestarossa) reported

    @bt_uk Not a freeview issue. Picture is currently doing it and the Home menu is not viewable due to the distortion so unable to check signal strength. Plugged aerial in direct to TV and absolutely fine.
