  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • MartynBradley7 Carry On Mart (@MartynBradley7) reported

    Love that @TalkingPicsTV now has Encore on the red button on Freeview, but the ratio is all wrong. Happy to watch in 4:3 if made that way but everything is in it, making some images stretched upwards. Please fix!

  • MattGannon_44 Matthew Gannon (@MattGannon_44) reported

    @mikelavelle93 The stobart one was an interesting idea as in theory the lorries would have been good marketing - although I never recall seeing many and it would really need a freeview TV deal to capitalise

  • ladderack Jenny (@ladderack) reported

    No channel 83? Do all the obvious checks retune still not working? @Freeview

  • CameronYardeJnr Cameron Yarde Jnr (@CameronYardeJnr) reported

    @TheSilverCloak @UKChristmasTV I'm not giving up my Sky. But Talking Pictures only has the catch up service on Freeview and I want to see it on proper TV. You can't cast from the app to the TV.

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @TPTVEncore @TalkingPicsTV Incredibly slow loading on a Panasonic Viera 49ES500. Even with the cache files preloaded. Also, no indication that the red button has been pressed to show the app is actually loading. All other Freeview+ services working fine.

  • juliesharp86 👉 Julie 👈 (@juliesharp86) reported

    Seen as everyone keeps telling me how bad GB News 236 on Freeview is. I have decided to watch it for todays bad news.

  • LuckyTarget Lucky Target Comics - back issue webstore (@LuckyTarget) reported

    Watching live Freeview for the first time in years and it is hour after hour, dozens of channels full of utter crap. How do people still watch this? Streaming has spoiled me.

  • DJGaryBaldy DJGaryBaldy 🎧 (@DJGaryBaldy) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Was it Forces TV who showed them before it shut down I know they've been on TV not so long back as I recorded them on my old Freeview PVR
