    @GBNEWS Good start but you need to fix a couple of issues, most notably the image is too dark and the sound is too quiet. On freeview anyway.

  • AbsenceMalice Cheap Jibes (@AbsenceMalice) reported

    @GBNEWS Dreadful picture on freeview, near complete collapse of digital signal. Sky picture good. One urgent improvement needed for the hard of hearing - subtitles! Maybe a ticker tape line running across the top of the screen?

  • jonthemusic Jon (@jonthemusic) reported

    @telday1 @Jayduck16803727 @GBNEWS I don't pay Sky a penny but previous occupant left box. It is not a subscription channel and I am watching it there now. It is only SD on Freeview and a few issues with the signal strength there.

  • mynnoj P.G. Chodehouse (@mynnoj) reported

    ITV HD looks like **** on Freeview, is everybody throwing bitrates into a skip again to fit more trash on?

  • chrislondon254 chris (@chrislondon254) reported

    @GBNEWS A few sound / voice sync issues watching on freeview.

  • MrSameer_ $ameer (@MrSameer_) reported

    Worst picture quality for new channel @GBNEWS on #Freeview it’s 2021 not 1942! #GBNews

  • trashbagorange Chris Orange (@trashbagorange) reported

    @GBNEWS great intro show - had to switch to streaming though - as audio video sync was awful on freeview. Hope u can get that sorted soon. Sound start tho - keep it up! @GBNEWS @afneil

  • PostalTaxis Postal Taxis (@PostalTaxis) reported

    @GBNEWS need to get rid of black background, not only because it’s dreary as ****, but it encodes terribly on the low bitrate stream they’ve got on freeview. Also, there’s no contrast when everybody is wearing dark clothes.

    Sort the picture out on Freeview @GBNEWS bloody awful .. also the lips are out of sync when they are speaking
