@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 We have been having problems with Freeview for months. Need to retune every day and real trouble getting BBC HD, ITV HD and Channel 4 HD. Haven't been able to get Points West consistently for years. Freeview is absolute garbage.

@virtualash tell your boys your TV quality is poor on Freeview. Whale's head will not look fuzzy. This can't be allowed to happen.

@Channel4, you guys aware that on Virgin cable, @PackedLunchC4 has a black line at top of image (like image has been moved down). Doesn't effect adverts or other C4 channels. Also seems fine on Freeview!

Help! So I’ve moved into a new house. My internet is set up and working but when I go onto my TV and try to access my catch up channels it will only pick up BBC and ITV? Any ideas? I need channel 4?!! #Freeview #OnDemand #Channel4 @virginmedia

@compo99 @irishkazza @BorisJohnson I have an old phone, don’t smoke or drink, only have freeview, haven’t been on holiday in over a decade, never owned designer anything, have had the same old trainers for years and have only gotten one small tattoo in the last 5 years that I saved up for for months. Try again 🙄

@andyAVAVsystems Astounded some new TVs still have the slot. Fair enough for sky boxes and such but never seen anyone pay for Freeview channels on a TV

@piersmorgan Congrats on the new show on @TalkTV. Great to have you back on the telly. Whilst it’s not a question for you, please can you raise this with your technical team - the picture quality of Talk TV on Freeview is terrible - looks really low density. Why is this?

@scottygb It's because barely anyone watches normal TV, let alone the freeview channels that are so far down the list. You're welcome.

@JohnBalley1 Young people don't watch broadcast TV, so it's nothing to do with you getting old. BTW I cancelled my liscence because the freeview signal is so bad. I hardly know anyone who wastes money on a TV liscence these days.
