    @MiniShane @JimSterling I mean, we had the same here with analogue. There were still channels that made their money from ad-revenue like ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, and they're still accessible on Freeview since the switch to digital. I just don't see an issue in funding a public institution

  • shipleynoise The Shipley Noise (@shipleynoise) reported

    @PhilippeAuclair At the very least a rolling Covid public information service should have been setup on Freeview, Digital Satellite and Virgin which would carry information on the rules. All technically possible using existing terrestrial and satellite capacity.

    @kategarraway @skytv I would think even if problem with Sky take the aerial lead out of back of sky box and plug into back of tv get you freeview at least, won't solve wi-fi I accept.

    I know the news is important. But **** same the bbc have a designated news channel that’s viewable to everyone (?) on freeview. Why does it keep having to be on the main channels when all it is is bad news

  • ButtonPiers Piers button (@ButtonPiers) reported

    @kategarraway @skytv Sometimes it is a simple reset that can fix it, turn off your Sky Box and broadband router, turn the router back on and wait for it to fully initialise, then turn on the Sky Box You should still be able to watch freeview if you plug the outside ariel directly into the TV.

    @back_the_BBC If the TV licence were to be decriminalised the only way to shore up BBC income would be some form of subscription even if only top up. A key problem, for government is that the #Freeview platform is, er, free, with the technology not currently supporting encryption for payments

    @willhowells I remember how they f*cked even that up. I missed the TV address because I was watching a freeview channel it wasn’t on & there was nothing to point to a channel it was on. & the text message arrived days late & iirc the link in it was broken. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 imperfect but better.

  • MayneLesley Lesley Helen Mayne (@MayneLesley) reported

    @evilscootus I love sbs on demand and as I access directly through my smart TV I don't have any problems. I find that if I go through freeview it takes ages and searches are almost impossible.

    @dekhogan We are still there Dek, but if you are having persistent problems there is a Freeview helpline 0808 100 0288

    @MNotts19 @thefreepress2 @TheProleStar we only had our licence to watch PMQs...we cant get freeview signal here and stopped virgin tv too pricey and paying for so many free to air channels. After GE i stopped my licence and wrote official complaints. £12 a month better off!!
