@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 🙁

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.

Watching #GBNews on FreeView 236 yesterday there was a slight delay between the sound and the picture. Hope they can fix that. Otherwise... Excellent.

@Adamadamant1111 @GBNEWS Watching @gbnews and so far the only problem is thelypsync which is out and very distracting... Same problem on Freeview and Sky

@benarchibald @GBNEWS The sync seems fine on Freeview. It's the poor microphones that are the biggest problem.

@GBNEWS Transmission signal on Freeview 236 still very poor, other channels ok. Defo something wrong with the sound signal - and you need to urgently add subtitles for the hard of hearing, please try a ‘ticker tape’ across the top of the screen.

@GBNEWS I live on the island of Islay off the west coast of Scotland. I wish to view GB news on my TV. My freeview signal is poor so channel 236 is not available. I do not have Sky as I generally stream my TV viewing via broadband. How can I get GB news on my TV?

@SusanHarris80 @toshtheblues I get it on freeview 236.....but had to quickly returne my TV first. However will give it a few days before I watch again while they sort the too many tech problems out. All very well investing in presenters and reporters only for the technical side to be a bit of a disaster.

@NickPye10 @GBNEWS Could do with an HD version on freeview, apart from that and the to be expected teething issues it’s ok

@jonhoneyball @afneil @GBNEWS Technically it's all a bit amateur hour. Terrible size ticker bar which covers far to much screen space. Hangs around to look when fun and awful font size and dodgy design. Far to dark sets. Awful levels for sound. The Freeview feed is 10db to low compared to every other channel
