@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 🙁

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.

@TheNorthernEcho Almost full service restored! 122 Freeview channels stored after retuning my TV! In my car however, the TFM signal is still too weak to use! So its the end of listening to TFM radio in Harrogate!

@arqiva One of my TV’s will see some of the multiplexes… The freeview box connected to the same socket wll see some of the same channels, but not all… my other TV will see about 16 channels (none of the main ones)… Feels like the signal power is nothing like what it was before…

@dannysavage @yorkshireladtv It's channels that are text services, teletext holidays is one, or use the Internet to show programmes that are not transmitted over the Freeview UHF network.

@FreeviewAdvice Food Network (channel 42) has mysteriously disappeared from my TV. Tried retuning and still won't reappear. Is this a Freeview issue/ do I just have to be patient and wait? Thank you.

The incident originally resulted in a Freeview multiplex configuration glitch when E4 was broadcast in place of S4C in Wales. During the last 24 hours, ITV and Channel 5 have been glitching in some regions while other services on the multiplex were fine.

@jsquires1990 @SkyHelpTeam ‘One cord’ went out the window as soon as the channel list was put online. Not all Freeview channels available… so an aerial would be needed. Awful product.

@rahim94 I don't know anyone with Netflix, Amazon or any streaming service. They're either unhappy with freeview or slightly happy with freesat and their catchup services!

I finally figured out how to get sky arts woo. It was pick, I retuned it and then it vanished. You have to do a "network channel scan" if you're on Freeview and it vanishes.

@dannysavage Not everywhere. Parts of Ripon, Thirsk and Harrogate still have very little or no signal. Freeview and Arqiva are on the case. Temporary relay being planned in next 14 days.
