    @EinCymru Yep it is true - can't get it on any Freeview service (might with Sky) - so annoying - have choice of North West or West Mids.

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • pop_hill Pop (@pop_hill) reported

    @SkyNews Can I connect my BluRay player to it, and is there a Freeview tuner in case the internet goes down?

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

    /2 uniquely in the UK, the East Mids transmitter at Waltham is being fed with the (broken) online streams. This first occured last week. All other Freeview transmitters have different source feeds that are not affected.

  • HeidiRoseC Heidirose Calandra (@HeidiRoseC) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Can't get a good freeview signal so got Freesat. Very happy with it. Seriously underrated

  • _Hometech_ Hometech Solutions (@_Hometech_) reported

    @Nur_Jahan786 @SkyUK From what I tell it’s just a Samsung TV which means you could still plug a set top box into one of the HDMIs or use Freeview just like any other tv. I guess this just has the new Sky streaming service built in.

  • ZXGuesser Guesser (@ZXGuesser) reported

    @DrRhys @grim_fandango @russty_russ I don't think I ever saw the Teletext Ltd MHEG5 service as starting it hard crashed our freeview box.

  • Morris_Oxford Podders (@Morris_Oxford) reported
