    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    @InspireAndStyle Hi, Karen. If you're getting FVP-300 on all Freeview Play players, check to see if there's a software update available for your Freeview Play device. If you've done an update and the player are still not launching on the TV, contact the devices manufacturer for support

    @InspireAndStyle @FreeviewAdvice Hi Karen, I had the same problem and I done a software update on my TV and reset the TV to default again after the update and it worked. You may also need to update the freeview app from your TV store (android play store) or LG store for example.

    @soph_letitia It’s on FreeSports not Premier, you can watch it online or on FreeView if you can get it on your TV down there

    How many channels does #C4 have on Freeview? Why can't they run their flagship news program (part of their Public Service) on time on the flagship channel? #c4news

    @TalkingPicsTV @UKChristmasTV I wish it would come to Freeview Play as that would be cool of me sitting down to watch repeats of Budgie after the news on a Saturday night which would be every goodie’s treat

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi guys, had Sky Q installed on Monday. Main TV is fine however have no Freeview reception on any other television in the house Please help

  • MikeARPowell The Black Jack (@MikeARPowell) reported

    @premierinn @ukJ0N If the TV signal is Freeview off a terrestrial aerial then this channel may be on Multiplex that can't be received by the current aerial installation. It is broadcast on the same COM 6 Multiplex as RT News (channel 234).

    @whatuptkhere The "freeview" apps now all require a sign in to watch the free to air streams. It's not enough to just sit through ads any more, they have to capture your personal data too.
