    @Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

  • Bermudgirl Marilyn McCubbin (@Bermudgirl) reported from Netley, 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.

  • DBauer191 Olivier Pujol (@DBauer191) reported

    @Jay_Beecher @GBNEWS @afneil Agreed. The whole production value needs dialling up. The sound issues, syncing and people talking in the background need sorting ASAP. Also watching through Freeview it's non HD, you forget how awful that non HD world was/is!

  • YoungOneUK AndyYoung (@YoungOneUK) reported

    @Carti_Mandua @GBNEWS It's crystal clear on Virgin TV. Really bad quality on freeview HD TV. It's down to the provider sending the signal.

  • SteveWardle Stephen Wardle (@SteveWardle) reported

    @GBNEWS Slowly getting better. Keep it up. Please consider an HD version for Freeview, as the picture is still poor. Also lose the black backgrounds and remove/cover up the people moving around in the background. Early days though 👍🏻

  • GaryNunn1955 Gary Nunn (@GaryNunn1955) reported

    @GBNEWS Why is you studio picture so poor on Freeview. I know its not HD, but neither is BBC News channel on Freeview and their picture is fine. Really looking forward to watching you, but not with such poor video. Its not my reception as video from your roving reporters is fine.

  • DBJ1970 Djsoapytitwank (@DBJ1970) reported

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

  • CllrGareth CllrGareth (@CllrGareth) reported

    @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.

  • 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.

  • DJMidarezaki DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇭🇰➡️ #LivesMatter (@DJMidarezaki) reported

    @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.

  • Ne3Steve SteveNE3 (@Ne3Steve) reported

    @Carti_Mandua @GBNEWS The picture is really clear on Sky but crap on Freeview
