    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @FreeviewTV is freeview down? No signal or channels during retune

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @JoshxReid @PATVOne1 @4Music They did move out of the music section on Sky a few years back to allow them to do this. Not an issue on Freeview with everything thrown in together. It is poor branding though - same with CBS Drama showing hours of Judge Judy.

    @redial999 @MayerAgain @tvlicensing * I am aware of freeview, but frankly that service is shockingly bad in some areas, to the point where BBC itself isn't available in bad weather, which, frankly defeats the point. On a good day there's like...8 channels broadcast from tower the aerial is pointed at.

    I know Channel 4 are having problems at the moment, but the quality of the Freeview stream of E4 is terrible - obviously very low bitrate and macroblocking all over the place in fast moving scenes. Hope it’s fixed soon. 🤞

    @cpresland74 @Channel4 Same on freeview and recordings are terrible - cmon @Channel4 pls sort your sound out on HD and HD recordings.

    @willsandry I’m watching on actual TV/Freeview. They’re still not right after the Red Bee fire/oxygen suppression system issues over the weekend. I think they must be broadcasting on backup systems.

    @jonoread Seems ok via Freeview, seeing tweets of issues.

    @mojomarconi The problem is sweetheart you are not in Europe. We can only get Freeview through a third party. Freesat footprint, since the new Satellite doesn’t reach places it used to reach. BritBox is not available in Portugal, although I would be happy to subscribe. 😭🤬

    @a516digital Everyone I know at work who still uses DTT to access freeview have some sort of problem over the last few weeks, and they all seem centred on COM 7. I know it's not staying much longer, but I wonder if EEs New masts sprouting up everywhere is something to it.

    @Trash_Panda_C Voyager and TOS on Horror Channel and DS9 on Pick - every week night. Not bad for standard freeview TV.
