Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Newport and nearby locations:

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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.

    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    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

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • leighpturner leigh (@leighpturner) reported

    I’m glad the Twitter memes are in glorious HD since ITV 2 isn’t on Freeview, it feels like I’m watching a cam copy of the show the quality is so bad in standard definition #LoveIsland

  • jeffbartrop Jeff Bartrop (@jeffbartrop) reported

    @blogmywiki Absolutely, and has the least delay! Still, anyone who happens to be a Sky or Virgin subscriber also has another option to get ITV. Or I can recommend setting up a Plex server with a network Freeview tuner- a DIY PVR / streaming service.

  • cookiris14 ICE//News first/🎗️ (@cookiris14) reported

    No book to read No more Netflix Now I am bored Freeview is crap

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @mark_simpson @jamesrhamilton @floongle Sorry to interrupt, but I was scratching my head for ages when I got my Samsung 4K TV. Apparently they reckon it's a feature for "upscaling" SD pictures on the built-in Freeview tuner.,without realising it makes some SD channels look even more bad than they normally are.

    @gamray I'm in my late 20s and I have never had a telly with Freeview. Watch everything online.

  • sr4th joey--T-- (@sr4th) reported

  • DaveJames78 Dave 💙 (@DaveJames78) reported

    @itvhub Why can’t we watch live tv please? Relegated to 8 bit graphics on “normal” tv because the freeview signal is so bad.

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported
