Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Gelligaer and nearby locations:

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • noneedforgreed Dan 🔶🎪 #Resist #FBPA #FBPPR #StandWithUkraine (@noneedforgreed) reported

    @Andrea25079843 We default to Netflix on such occasions, for content. We also make extensive use of Freeview and iPlayer to serve we parents and our juniors' TV ration. I can't speak to what specific content floats your boat Andrea, but Netflix is our go to subscription and cancel service.

  • willmill82 🍢🥙will🥙🍢 (@willmill82) reported

    @ben_quick With Sky Glass, if you cancel the subscription there's a freeview tuner so it'll work... But yeah, understand the hesitancy there

  • sjmawhinney Stephen Mawhinney (@sjmawhinney) reported

    @edmorrish @jonholmes1 @IanDunt I don't know how it would work but if you've paid the licence fee you should be able to access BBC TV shows however you want. Freeview, Sky, Virgin whatever. Youtube is a little more complicated but it's annoying BBC TV catch-up doesn't work properly on Sky.

  • DSkippings Darren Skippings (@DSkippings) reported

    This privatisation of Ch4, would include the stake in freeview that is part owned between BBC, ITV and CH4, another terrible idea, from our government of terrible ideas.

  • Andicurrie Andi Currie (@Andicurrie) reported

    The LG C1 oled is incredible! However @LGUK why is the EPG on your freeview so slow and constantly loading? Never had these issues before, its painful to use.

  • CorriganPaul Paul Corrigan (@CorriganPaul) reported

    @MediaGuido @netflix That is a false equivalence given geographic spread of their markets. If Ch4, Beeb & ITV had used Freeview and their channels more effectively they could have brought Sky to their knees. An ITV bid seems like a great idea but gov support to gain funds for expansion sensible too

  • sidcelery Sid Celery (@sidcelery) reported

    @grahamefendle Also, Freeview is brilliant tbh. Pretty much the same as Virgin's basic package but without the porno and selling channels. Also allows me to delete channels such as that mongo GB News cuntery full of spastic propagandist gimps. **** them all. This is the way to go imo.

  • BromleyBeau Nikki 💚🤍💜 (@BromleyBeau) reported

    @sellar_james @DeanLockhartMSP I have no mains gas, no public water, no public sewage, no fast broadband until 2027, no DAB radio, no Freeview signal, no trains and a virtually non-existent bus service......so branding on food packets isn't that important in the grand scheme of things.

  • 3Legs4Wheels 3Legs4Wheels (@3Legs4Wheels) reported

    @alexstanger1993 @C4Sport The best/worst one was a Freeview retune that took ITV4 off terrestrial TV over here so people actually struggle to watch the TT

  • muder1308 ModernTVGold (@muder1308) reported

    @Forces_TV @RadioTimes The time it debuted when W moved to the Freeview page on the 25-31 March 2022 issue. So it had to replace the defunct Fox channel on p5.
