@MattHuismanNZ @Orcon Both browser and TVNZ app work, but not through Freeview app. I have another live tv streaming service that uses IPTV Smarters and that has stopped working since the weekend. Wondering if the issues are linked.

How would you, technically, make a TV service through an aerial work as a subscription service? Would you make people pay for a Sky/Virgin box to enable them to receive a BBC subscription service? What about the 10 million Freeview users and 1.5m people without internet access?

@HarrietSergeant @darrengrimes_ What’s your solution? Obviously advertising is out of the question and it has to be kept on freeview to allow accessibility for all, so what do you propose?

@TalkingPicsTV Interesting, is that mandated by Freeview or was there a functional incentive to move down the band?

In the meantime, transfering the signal to a more sturdy temporary mast will result in 2,500 households losing Freeview, mostly near the Durham coast. This is because the mini-mast isn't tall enough to clear the edge of the North York Moors, blocking line of sight. -2-

@4Viewers I updated the firmware on the Panasonic DMR-PWT550. Trying to watch Friday Night Dinner series on All4 is awful. Loads of image stalls. How to I check version of the All4 player on a Freeview Play PVR?

@jtlightbody BBC Parliament - Freeview 232, noon. However, if you want to retain your sanity, I suggest that you record it. I fear that Spaffer is going to be at his smirking worst!

Remember, the #BBCLicenceFee doesn't just pay for BBC Broadcast services, but for the investment in research, infrastructure etc that enables free to air viewing via other platforms and services. Without BBC support freeview and freesat would probably collapse
