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.

@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.

@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 🙁

@tstrachanedit I used to watch it every weekend when it was on freeview but could never justify the spend when it went behind a paywall. Couldn’t beat having a lazy Saturday with endless cuppa’s and just tv. Good times!

@bririley_70 Man you gotta love the account name. No false advertising there. Also, pretty sure this concept was done before on one of the late night freeview channels years ago. Think the bastard McKenzie was involved in the channel though so have never gone back there.

Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

@GBNEWS Are you broadcasting at a reduced signal strength? For around a week I have been getting glitches affecting sound and picture and its so bad today its even affecting a set with a booster on it. All other channels are fine and I have tried re-tuning. I watch on Freeview

@FreeviewAdvice Hi Freeview we have an apartment block in Malton, North Yorkshire. All the TVs have been retuned but the signal is weak and on most of the TVs the picture or the sound is distorted. How can we resolve this problem as it is affecting our business... thanks

It's 2021 and there is still no sane way to have a streaming equivalent of Freeview or Freesat that can be accessed from a single UI. This is why public service broadcasting is dying.
