    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)

  • SunburntRock89 SunburntRock89 (@SunburntRock89) reported

    @cleanfeed_ttvr C4 HD on Freeview has returned as normal (just jumping into the SD programming). Magic is back and so is 5SELECT (also with no mention of anything wrong). C5's My5 doesn't work for anything but 5Star right now.

    Dreadful picture quality for More 4 Freeview viewers in North East England, still off air in other regions. While for others, everything is working fine. Why? That particular part of the Freeview service is regionalised and there are multiplexing issues in some areas.

  • youspecialagent Your Special Agent (@youspecialagent) reported

    @offshorebella @NickUnitt Heard it is down on satellite and freeview

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

    More 4: if you're on Freeview, availability varies. It's still off air in some regions - i.e. you'll just see a logo top left. In other areas, it's back and earlier issues with poor picture quality are being resolved. Sat/cable viewers are already back to normal.

  • Kryfold_Sky Kryfold Sky (@Kryfold_Sky) reported

    Either my tellys broke or several freeview channels have gone down? 📺

  • Gwyn_Dr Gwyn Williams (@Gwyn_Dr) reported

    @JBlairSco @eddsirr @S4C Sky, Freesat, Vigin, S4C Clic and BBC iPlayer are unaffected. The issue only relates to Freeview

  • oliver_shergold 𝐀𝐜𝐢𝐝 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 (@oliver_shergold) reported

    @FPL_Youngster Hang on Youngster I'll have a look as I also captained CR7. 36 with 2 players left. Totally not bothered, gave up taking this thing seriously yonks ago. I only play it cos there's **** all on Freeview.

  • OurManInBananas Philip Livingstone (@OurManInBananas) reported

    @channel5_tv is channel 5 down - in London all we see is a service card on Freesat and Freeview?

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

    @danmooreradio It appears at least C5 has a back-up feed. C4 is restored - i.e. there is a working feed around. The problem now appears to be in the distribution chain for Freeview's D3&4 (PSB2) multiplex.
