  • MT_Kilpatrick Michael Kilpatrick (@MT_Kilpatrick) reported

    Old Panasonic Freeview PVR no good for new ITV player and it had fault:, watch catch-up progs and it would occasionally freeze for 0.5secs. Bought a new Manhattan and it's just as crap - goes slow-mo for 2secs at random times. Why is everything such junk? @FreeviewTV

  • den66621408 den (@den66621408) reported

    @GBNEWS GBN On freeview keeps freezing is anyone else having problems. Talk TV and all other channels working fine.

    If you bought your smart tv or Freeview/freesat receiver more than 4 or 5 years ago, and haven’t tried ITV Hub recently, check you can still get into it. If you can’t, chances are you won’t be able to get the new ITVX service.

    @virginmedia I have had to dig out an old aerial lead so we can watch Freeview - so currently we are paying for a service we are not receiving

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @UKChristmasTV Schedules suddenly appeared on Freeview guide this morning. Probably an issue for them given it was a weekend. Although, who knows? Have a week filled with happiness - Matthew.
