Got up this morning switched on sky news as usual, as usual no new news, checked Google no new news, just reporters trawling any old breaking news to carry on a story to justify their jobs, nothing to watch, Freeview nothing to watch only people's opinions, we pay for this crap.

@a516digital What's needed however is to change the technology used and support a better system, such as DVB T2. I don,t see streaming as a threat to freeview or freesat for that matter. As , the title says it's free. Streaming is all paid for. Just ask my neighbours!.

@Adam_Peterkin They use the 'Freesat home transponder', sitting alongside the signal that delivers the Freesat EPG. Unlike the current TV back-up for Freeview multiplex PSB2 via satellite, the DAB multiplexes are not broadcast in a format that your average satellite receiver can handle.

Today’s first world problem: switching to the I-Player for the Hundred match because the picture for BBC2 is a bit fuzzy on Freeview, and being a bit sulky that it’s about 30 seconds delayed.

@MsAmiiEvlynB @FreeviewAdvice @FreeviewTV Mine went like this a few months ago. I contacted freeview they told me lots of things 2 try none worked. Was at home after a week of no freeview looked down & thought what if I disconnect signal booster maybe that will make a difference..it did. If you have booster disconnect it

@belperite Hi. Good question. The satellite feed is broadcast in DVB-S. It has to be converted into a DVB-T multiplex using a modulator so that Freeview devices can receive it. The solution for ITV/C4 and C5 means they can use a similar system to that used in hotels and ships, no encoder.

Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

@a516digital He then changed it to vertical. Came back down, said that's £240 payable to freeview, he would be back in the morning as there were other jobs.
