And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

@bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

@FreeviewTV @fb2070 My mother has had the same problem. Didn’t have any channels, so I retuned the Freeview box. HD channels are now missing. Can you advise please?

@FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

@flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

@bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

@gbnews Why is the frame rate on your Freeview transmission so slow? I've also noticed the sound and vision are often out of sync. Are you transmitting at a reduced bitrate?

@Discovery Don't know if you can help but i'm in the UK & all of a sudden cannot get any of your channels on freeview. Quest, Food Network etc. It just says channel no longer exists. Tried updating channels, scanning for channels etc to no avail. Can you advise?

Well thats weird, plugged a sat feed into an androidTV to see if it's inbuilt sat support is any good, (Only sat comes in where the tv is) it seems to have mapped the channels to the freeview EPG.

Is it me or is the picture quality on BBC SD channels extremely poor? (Freeview) SD just shouldn't look this bad!

@FreeviewTV @FreeviewAdvice why has the freeview guides changed to show multiple regions? I select SE(Kent) region, but can also get London. London mast reception bad. New menu causes recording series duplication! Continued

@NationalTheatre Sky Arts on NowTV doesn't seem to have this. Disappointing for those of us without Freeview. Damn. Any tips?

@FreeviewAdvice quick question folks. Just bought a new TV and the Freeview Play app is installed. I honestly don't know if this is an on demand service or a live broadcast service (or both?) I have no TV aerial, nor TV licence as I haven't watched live broadcast TV for years.

@bt_uk Thanks Claire. We keep losing freeview channels or they go fuzzy. We were told to buy something to help with the signal but we don’t want to pay for something else on top of the bill. I’ve retuned, fixed factory settings etc. I’ve always been a loyal customer but had enough tbh.
