    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV I recently purchased a Philips Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR LED TV with Google Assistant does it support Freeview play as I can't get the apps to work.

  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

  • SLCollindridge Sean Collindridge (@SLCollindridge) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @AmazonHelp I bought a Freeview PVR on my new Argos but have since decided I don't want it. It's still ready for collection at the Huddersfield store. What can I do to cancel this and have my card refunded

  • palyniam Paul O'Flynn (@palyniam) reported from Gildersome, England

    @HumaxUK only had this fvp-500t since 7th may 20 and its on the blink, freezes, losing recorded programs and Freeview is so slow. Has updates April 2019 but still poor. I would not recommend this at all.

    @petercrouch Are you talking about Freeview, Freesat, Sky or Virgin Media? Actually, forget it, I'm not that interested in your first-world, millionaire 'problems.'

  • EastLight EastLight (@EastLight) reported

    @mashcore4mums @a516digital Not sure if the small delay on BBC 1 vs News is intentionally added, or related to the feed passing through regional centres? Freeview SD pictures are poor even on "high" bitrate channels though. "Dreadful" was my initial reaction when I 1st saw DVB in 1999- this hasn't changed.

  • TomDavi8165081 Tom1871 (@TomDavi8165081) reported

    Is anyone else having problems recording off of freeview? Things keep failing from the HD channels such as BBC One & ITV. I don't record off the HD channels, just the normal ones. I don't know why it keeps doing this. I retuned my freeview box to see if that helps.

  • PiaKristmansson Pia Kristmansson (@PiaKristmansson) reported

    @FreeviewTV My freeview is down… 🥹

  • TangeMusic TangeMusic (@TangeMusic) reported

    @VonBarronshire @petercrouch Because there isn't enough capacity to have more HD channels than there already are on Freeview transmitters, unless all the SD channels were shut down, and they can't do that yet as too many people still watch them.

  • RevBrynstero0 Reverend Brynstero0 (@RevBrynstero0) reported

    Operation avoid the funeral is in full effect. Helped by my Freeview reception going to **** in the rain. So now watching The Samaritan on Prime. #NowWatching

  • Rachelgpeters Rachel Peters 🌞 (@Rachelgpeters) reported

    @JamesHalcrow It’s so bad, just went to find something, canned it and decided to stick to Freeview lol

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    @EvanD @Psythor @JamesCridland Shopping channels also have the issue that it might be seen as inappropriate to continue broadcasting. Of interest in regards statmuxing is that a number of Sky satellite channels also reverted to static captions, including Pick. On Freeview, Pick showed the Funeral. Here, the...

    @GabrielVanca @ZachElsbury @PeterTatchell Freeview. Netflix. iPlayer. Plenty of alternatives available to those who don't want someone's way of life shoved down their throats

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @a516digital Brilliant, thank you. For some reason the BBC seem slow or reluctant to update their listings which for programmes not broadcast makes my Freeview box give a "recording failed due to power loss" error.
