    Nooooo just lost our TV signal in the middle of @TheRepairShop Christmas programme. Freeview signal out across much of Cambs but until this minute we'd been ok. Thank heavens for iPlayer so we can see the rest later.

    @MrCoolHandLuke @PairoMayniaq @Telegraph Much of the country can't and will never get Freeview or full fibre broadband. In future it will be the same with 4G and 5G and whatever comes next.

    Not receiving a service who would. A plan that will back fire as I will film the "inspector" when he comes and he demonstrate how&why I should have a licence, good luck with that... Seriously getting pissed off with #BBC @tvlicensing no signal no money from me sort Freeview out

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    On this day in 2012, S4C's original HD service "Clirlun" closed down. Its Freeview slot was taken over by C4 HD. In 2016, S4C relaunched its HD outlet, this time simply known as 'S4C HD'. The BBC Three consultation revealed S4C HD is earmarked for a return to Freeview soon.

    @johncraggsactor So glad Mr Hill making you laugh..I haven't seen any reruns yet so don't know if I've been on..I did the last 5 years, so pretty late...we laughed an awful lot doing the shows..is it on Freeview? Cx

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @MisterVivian @cleanfeed_ttvr Saorview uses DVB-T / MPEG4, so it's the other way around. MPEG4 actually allows broadcasters to fit more channels on a multiplex. As a result, Sky News at 704x576 can be done at similar bitrates as a 544x576 service on UK Freeview. You may remember Sky once wanted to launch...

    The FREEVIEW transmitter on Guildford's Hog's Back is DOWN. No Freeview TV reception in and around Guildford. UNPRECEDENTED! No idea when NORMAL service will resume.

  • EddieOK4 Eddie OK (@EddieOK4) reported

    ...WARNING... @SkyHelpTeam got a new SkyQ box and multi room fitted yesterday afternoon, already it is not working! They claim this is the best technology ever, it's not, they just want your money. Stick with freeview people or go to an alternative supplier.

    @ImagesZx It seems to rely on what the definition of live TV. If a live program is available on Freeview, Cable TV or Sky (or any related streaming service) then that requires a license. You need fire example a license to watch Sky News live on YouTube. (1/2)

    @amolrajan You must be free to speak, even if it’s hating on Kate who many of us admire and who will be our Queen. If the Beeb feel it’s ok to pay someone with these views, no problem. But we can’t watch other Freeview channels unless we pay for your ‘bricks’ Time for that to change.

  • annkavanagh09 Ann Kavanagh (@annkavanagh09) reported

    @lizmarsh18 @GeaPerks @virginmedia Thars my issue, their TV service is not so good and unfortunately due to my area I cannot watch through freeview as aerial no use otherwise I would

  • rosetoot rose wakelin (@rosetoot) reported

    @virginmedia avoid this lot. Landline hardly ever works, Internet says its fast but there are lags that mean you can't hold a normal MSTeams meeting and more TV stations on Freeview. Also impossible to cancel since you have to sit waiting for useless AI to respond. Just say NO
