@Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

@FreeviewAdvice Can you help me please. I am now relying on Freeview. My tv has HD but Freeview isn’t. How do I get my Freeview into HD. It’s not a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

@Patricia344130 Live TV probably yes. Find lots of ‘old’ repeats, which never had time to watch, are now much more interesting. Thank goodness for Freeview.

TikTok's latest trend is based on Adult Swim and the channel titles or whatever and... I grew up with Freeview television. I have no idea what's going on. I'm so lost. This is nearly as bad as when I tried to watch Phineas & Ferb with people and had no idea what was happening.

@martiansurvivor Hi, Freeview TV requires an active aerial connection to receive our service, unfortunately, this is the only way to get the TV channels via Freeview. You may be able to find something online for a different provider. Thanks, Dev.

@radionz Why can't I find RNZ National in the Freeview Guide? We record and listen to your programmes on satellite Freeview as radio reception here is terrible. HELP!

@Patricia344130 During the week it's fine but weekend TV is awful. I don't have Netflix etc only Freeview. I sometimes put dvds on of my fav shows. If you live alone there's not much else to do and the TV is company.

@UBn9ohogz0XOFWP @GBNEWS To watch I need a TV license, a freeview signal or Sky subscription, and an HD TV. I don't have any of those. Oh, and even if I had Sky I would have to pay extra for GB News
