    Ok, Peanut Gallery, what is a decent news/current events show available on Freeview that I can watch for 15 minutes in the morning before work with my cereal? I can't do Piers Morgan, and BBC Breakfast IS pretty poor, I'll admit.

    @HumanityReality @TonyTcrawley666 @voodude64 There is. They are all availble on their own streaming apps like iPlayer All4 etc. What Kapang did was aggregate them all into one place. I had a look and their other channels are still working, just not the Freeview ones. This makes me suspect its a legal issue.

    @Jamesmack007 @GBNEWS It's crystal clear on Virgin Media TV in my front room but the image is fuzzy and blurry on FreeviewHD on my upstairs TV. It's down to the provider. If your watching it on Freeview that is the problem.

    @sandieshoes We would be happy to. Cancel our Sky subscription and watch it on Freeview / subscription. Likewise we subscribe to Amazon Prime, Netflix, don't give it a 2nd thought. Good VFM.

    @GBNEWS You still seem to be having volume issues on Freeview. Loving the channel, but just seems to be 50% quieter than all other channels. Hope you fix this soon :)

    @GBNEWS Give us a fireTV app. The Freeview app doesn't work even if you have the knowhow to sideload it so unless you pay for Sky or watch on a phone you can't easily watch at all. I'm too old to squint at a phone for hours.

    wtf is this “new news channel” everyone is harping on about? am i missing something here bc i can’t find any new news channel on the freeview

  • CllrGareth
    CllrGareth (@CllrGareth) reported

    @GBNEWS A few other things… your YouTube doesn’t have a live feed. The IOS app forces horizontal rotation. Freeview is in a pretty poor SD. There’s no smart tv apps. Eg roku/tizen/webos.

    @Warwickshire01 @GuidoFawkes Had Sky when it first started. Turned out too expensive. Never bothered again. Wouldn't pay for TV. Happy with freeview.
