    @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 🙁

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    On 25th September, C4 had to abandon its usual regionalised distribution following the Red Bee Media incident. Since then, on Freeview, services have been running on lower bitrates. On satellite, fixed bitrates have been used. Both contributing to picture issues.

    Anyone else having problems with Freeview as i have lost so manychabbels and reinstalled installation 4 times and still missing channels.

  • MarkThorndyke Mark Thorndyke (@MarkThorndyke) reported

    Why hasn't the BBC got a +1 on any sky/Freeview? Why have they so many "Radio" stations funded by this license we never listen to? WAY to many! Why is the #BBC shite? Any decent show is by another company in reality The BBC is dying and needs to go as the talent CAN go elsewhere

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    * These two sites are affected as they currently broadcast all the main Freeview channels on the frequencies that Bilsdale will be using. To avoid interference, they need to come off air during tests. **That 80 metre temporary mast will be in service for quite some time.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    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.

    so according to the freeview website a majority of people will get the signal back on wednesday. Whether or not that includes yours truly is a matter of time.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    There have been multiple reports of issues with the Freeview multiplex carrying ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 in standard definition. Different areas have been affected in different ways, but some services have been garbled/distorted,
