@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 🙁

Hey there, funny question: my folks have moved to Levin and they can’t get Māori TV to work on Freeview on their new TV. It just goes from channel 4 to channel 6 and no channel 15. My bro reckons you can’t get Māori TV everywhere due to reception issues. Is this true? Surely not?

@Fi_Me1 I'm a cheapskate, I pay the cheapest Netflix. But that is good for Sky. Couldn't do that here - would confuse the OH - he still hasn't worked out how to watch Prime or Netflix, so he's still watching the dull repeat awful movies on Freeview!

@Ne3Steve @GBNEWS Interesting. Next time I notice sound sync issues I'll check Freeview & see if it's the same.

Do you know that out of 30 odd television channels on New Zealand's freeview. That there is only 4 - 5 mainstream channels. Out of these most popular channels. Most of the content is reality TV crap. I would love to see an old black and white 30s musical movie.

I hope to have an outside aerial on Monday. Then I can see if my tv picks up a signal, and auto-tune it to get all of the channels on freeview. I've had a 4 year break, now I'm going back to it again. I need to rest at least one day of the week.
