    Not at all surprised to find that @itvx is a pile of rubbish. Not integrated into Freeview Play's TV guide, no Channel list in the app's UI, so using it for catch up is a pain in the neck. Didn't they do any usability tests? Unbelievably bad. That's if it loads... #itvx

  • liarpoliticians Liarpoliticians, UK has rogue Parliament+police (@liarpoliticians) reported

    @Basil2744 @GBNEWS I can confirm that @GBNews has an audio problem. BBC Breakfast / BBC News average at about -6db, GB News is a lot lower (approx -10dB).. add to that problem, it is lower volume on Freeview than on Freesat in HD - I don't know why, they should be virtually the same. #GBNews

  • dvarets Alexei Romanov (@dvarets) reported

    @GuidoFawkes Poor picture quality on Freeview is a bit of a let down.

  • cue_em Howard Pitfield (@cue_em) reported

    @GBNEWS lip-synch problems on Freeview...sound is way out. Can't watch until this is fixed.

  • JasonDragon1975 Jason Ratcliffe (@JasonDragon1975) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @Alexand85266011 @femme_uk @GBNEWS Freeview isn't very reliable for me either. I'm only 10 miles [as the crow flies] from the South Yorkshire Transmitter, yet I can only receive 6 of the 15 HD channels available. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and CBBC. The signal quality/strength is on average 80%.

    @GBNEWS I don’t know if it’s been mentioned but I watched on Freeview last night and often the sound was out of synch when a person was talking. The 9:00pm show was worst hit. It may have been teething troubles & ok on other platforms. I’ll check again later to see how it looks.

  • daphnewheeler15 Daphne Wheeler (@daphnewheeler15) reported

    @CatharineHoey @GBNEWS It all sounds just my sort of news BUT @afneil please tell me how to listen on my aged diggy box freeview in Lewes I tried all evening without any luck. Help Please.

    @mattthr The aerial to play Freeview might be an issue. I went with the Nvidia Shield however that is not cheap but does have expandable storage

  • stucordy Stuart Cordy (@stucordy) reported

    @GBNEWS Hi guys. Definite technical issues at the moment. Audio and video not in sync with varying degrees of separation and picture quality is not as expected on Freeview. External guest audio is almost inaudible. Just trying to help. You’ll get there 👍

  • DaveMor16686271 Dave Morrison (@DaveMor16686271) reported

    @PPMurphy @GBNEWS Plus the picture quality is crap on Freeview

  • VirtuaMcPolygon Rob Farmer (@VirtuaMcPolygon) reported

    @jonhoneyball @afneil @GBNEWS Technically it's all a bit amateur hour. Terrible size ticker bar which covers far to much screen space. Hangs around to look when fun and awful font size and dodgy design. Far to dark sets. Awful levels for sound. The Freeview feed is 10db to low compared to every other channel
