    @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 🙁

    @FranMooMoo l would also be concerned about why a child's picture was posted on the web, more cameras is like freeview tv for pdf'iles once hacked. Cradle to grave surveillance, not good. Another case of problem, reaction, solution, to serve technocracy imo.

  • Watcher372 John Rawstron 🦊🚀 (@Watcher372) reported

    @DAZNFootball @FIFACWC Your coverage on freeview is the worst coverage I've ever seen. Banner every few minutes blocking all the action, miss half the game. Disgusting coverage.

  • landspeeder Ian Bailey🐀 (@landspeeder) reported

    @weather_bee We've had this on occasions on Freeview when the signal from Hannington is disrupted

  • AnthonyMarx20 Anthony Marx (@AnthonyMarx20) reported

    @GBNEWS Why is there always sound problems on GB news on Freeview? I like the channel, but I’m put off with the slight dubbing problem.

  • linktonian Iain Mackinnon (@linktonian) reported

    @iainmcmenemy @NoContextBrits totally raised this with my MP a few years back he took up with Ofcom who replied saying that basically tough. Freeview were complying with legislation and thst I should try and use a booster aerial to try and pick up a signal from the Brechin transmittè 50 miles away I declined

  • snoddy114 Well now . . . . . .🇬🇧🇬🇧🇮🇪 (@snoddy114) reported

    NO FREEVIEW DO NOT LOSE SIGNAL ON THE LAST FEW DAYS OF WIMBLEDON!!! My Sister's TV is not working at all?! @FreeviewTV @BBCSport @BBC

  • TheWelshGammon Rhys (@TheWelshGammon) reported

    @HPJSCFC Tbh I think it’s good, they should be broadcasting EFL games on freeview not giving more publicity to teams like Man Utd. Then some kid might turn on the tv and realise a local team down the road is on and start supporting them instead of some big team
