    @neddalton90 They are indeed. BUT, if they can sow the seeds of doubt in the minds of some "Covid enthusiasts", that's a good thing. Their presence on the Freeview platform means they have much larger reach than Talk Radio, so you never know.

    @IvorIdea @cheesedoff3 @GBNEWS The web feed in 1080p looks pretty decent, don't forget that many commercial slots on Freeview are the reduced resolution 544x576 stretched to 16x9 ratio so looks a bit blurry and washed out.

  • Fatjon27803327 TheFatjon (@Fatjon27803327) reported

    @GBNEWS Give us a fireTV app. The Freeview app doesn't work even if you have the knowhow to sideload it so unless you pay for Sky or watch on a phone you can't easily watch at all. I'm too old to squint at a phone for hours.

    @iMultitudes Probably aggressive compression as there’s only so some much bandwidth on freeview. You get artefacts when you push audio down quality levels.

    @GBNEWS Zero signal on freeview in Cambridgeshire. If you can put it live on YouTube I'll be another new customer.

    Twitter playing right into GB N*ws hands No publicity is bad publicity and the BBC is finishing off their reporting of the ads being pulled like this: "GB News is available on Freeview channel 236 as well as other platforms including Sky, Virgin Media and Freesat." #Ikea

  • shirleyGTTO 💙 LabourLeaks ... Forde Report. NO DMs (@shirleyGTTO) reported

    @docrussjackson It's blocked they're blocked and I've taken it off Freeview. Absolute crap. We are not this stupid people's, please tell me you're not listening to the shite.

  • KeithParrycdf Keith Parry (@KeithParrycdf) reported

    GB News. A tv station to promote unionism, not my cup of tea. Seen it on Freeview, production quality is crap. Sound not syncrynised with pictures. Sound levels of interviewees all over the place. Sound generally much lower level than BBC1 etc.

    @GBNEWS A few other things… your YouTube doesn’t have a live feed. The IOS app forces horizontal rotation. Freeview is in a pretty poor SD. There’s no smart tv apps. Eg roku/tizen/webos.
