    People who have Freeview - is it just a one off cost for the box or subscription and can you record stuff? (Am trying to figure out tv options and can't get virgin and sky i think you need a dish. Aerial is crap here)

  • Ross3330 Ross Stewart (@Ross3330) reported

    I’m watching on Freeview 236, wonder if different on other platforms? The video synch and sound quality can be so bad I can’t watch the screen. It is your priority issue to fix.

  • LadyNakanoT Eliza (@LadyNakanoT) reported

    @Rastech919 @markmaycot @GBNEWS Thank you, yes I got the channel but as I have no outside aerial some of my Freeview channels have no signal even with indoor aerial and this channel is one of them, sadly. Will just watch on their website, thank you anyway 👍

  • seabros Steve Seabrooke (@seabros) reported

    @GBNEWS Good luck with the new channel. Two points need sorting out asap. The sound volume on Freeview is very low compared to other channels and the picture quality in studio is poor. Teething problems I'm sure.

  • geekjamesh Geek (@geekjamesh) reported

    @LDubSimon @GaryLineker I had that on the iPad while the football was on the big screen. On anything more than a 10” screen the ITV3/4 freeview picture quality was so bad I couldn’t see the ball half the time!

  • redsince57 Kev THE Red ⚽✈️⛱️ (@redsince57) reported

    @Juckylim @GBNEWS @virginmedia Same on freeview last night & this morning for me. I changed channel and back again. That seemed to fix it for me, but annoying nontheless.

  • DaveMor16686271 Dave Morrison (@DaveMor16686271) reported

    @afneil I was looking forward to GB news but if you think I’m going watch a station with just sd picture on Freeview. If I’m not good enough for hd on Freeview I’m not bothering. Your picture quality is crap.

  • markydeedrop 🅜🅐🅡🅚 (@markydeedrop) reported

    @tomhfh I look forward to that. I'm never a fan of Freeview SD quality.

  • WrecklessGamer Booker Dewitt 🌸 (@WrecklessGamer) reported

    .@GBNEWS are you hoping to get an HD channel on Freeview? Would definitely help 👍

  • IrkthePurists Mike Scott (@IrkthePurists) reported

    @braintree_ Apparently it’s going out in HD somewhere, but the quality on freeview is shockingly bad.

  • JackyCwiero Jacky Cwiero (@JackyCwiero) reported

    @KEdge23 Obviously there are some technical issues, the sound for one is pretty diabolical (watching on Freeview 236) have to turn the TV volume right up.
