@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 🙁

Watching ‘The Silent Enemy’ on Freeview. Must be the only black and white war film I’ve never seen before.

@smurph25 @cleanfeed_ttvr Until earlier on, the slot was showing a Saorview information video. 544x576 SD, same resolution as Sky News on Freeview.

Sometimes there is nothing interesting on Freeview which lèads one to Blaze & The Roswell incident. I listen to it from a psychological perspective & hear multiple doubt in the voices of those speaking.

Replaced with ONLY BBC channels no ITV/C4/C5 or any other channel. However the signal is weak regardless of how many times you manual tune etc. 1 million homes lost Freeview son9f course 1 million cancelled their license when TVL said no refunds, yes they expected us to pay for

@keithbelfast @rte It never has been before and they stream it internationally so I think you'll be ok. Stream sometimes struggles so Sky/Freeview would be best...

@FreeviewAdvice Hi, I've lost the Freeview signal my TV receives since last night because of the storm. If I sent you my postcode, could you check what the status will be for the transmitter to be up and running again please?

@NOWMusic Hey if you insist in having a music channel on Freeview can you please make sure the audio bitrate doesn’t sound garbage? The compression is painful
