    @FreeviewAdvice Can you help me please. I am now relying on Freeview. My tv has HD but Freeview isn’t. How do I get my Freeview into HD. It’s not a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

    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.

    @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 🙁

  • Crayon28715896 Mark (@Crayon28715896) reported

    @SkyNews It’s a shame the picture on Sky News is terrible (Freeview). I’d of watched more on Sky News if the picture wasn’t so bad.

  • UTTRob Rob (@UTTRob) reported

    It's great that AEW is on a freeview chanel and like it or loath it AEW tries to provide fan service to the hardcore audience. But in terms of introducing new fans to wrestling in the UK I can only imagine that it's niche product has a minimal impact.

  • Oxford1001 S F 🇺🇦 (@Oxford1001) reported

    @Stroudgreenguy If you are using Freeview it’s going to be a poor signal from your Ariel

  • SaveCBBC Save CBBC (@SaveCBBC) reported

    @W0NK042 @UKChange The channel itself is closing though, on linear TV. It will no longer be accessible on Freeview, Sky etc.. - which is the problem for those who depend on it / do not have access to high speed BB. I could have worded this “CBBC is closing” but like you say, that’s not happening

  • KevS1973 HM King Flatlander I 💙🇺🇦 (@KevS1973) reported

    Public Service Announcement: Those wishing to avoid the hoopla could do far worse than go to Freeview channel 84 where PBS are showing Ken Burns' peerless American Civil War documentary for most of the day. *SOUNDS SHELBY FOOTE KLAXON*

  • andyAVAVsystems Andy AVAV Systems (@andyAVAVsystems) reported

    @Paulusdmc42 That’s the issue. He disconnected the old Freesat Humax, put the adapters on & connected it to a Freeview Box Then wondered why it didn’t work

  • HD2onPBdotcom Brian Corbett (@HD2onPBdotcom) reported

    @rogermosey Work on the transmitter near Manchester in the last month means that ALL BBC transmissions - national radio, local radio, SD TV and HD TV have ceased here: I cannot receive about 30% of the Freeview channels I have been getting over the last 6+ years. And retuning doesn't help

  • HSouthwellFE Hazel Southwell (@HSouthwellFE) reported

    Channel 4 HD is channel 104 on freeview for anyone else who just watched the start in the resolution of an etch-a-sketch

  • sheriffofknokem TrikiRefusenik (@sheriffofknokem) reported

    @VAS6323 Most channels have issues at one time or another since TV went digital... I can only comment on Freeview ..
