@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 🙁

@GBNEWS any chance you can sort the sound quality out on Freeview please. It is awful and can hardly hear what is being said even with the volume on high. Others have complained to. Please sort it out or people will just turn off. #sortthesoundout

@Juckylim @GBNEWS @virginmedia Same on freeview last night & this morning for me. I changed channel and back again. That seemed to fix it for me, but annoying nontheless.

Frustrating that we can’t pick up channel 236 on freeview as the signal is too weak, so no @GBNEWS for us 😩

@GBNEWS Sort your broadcast signal out. Picture looks like it’s recorded on a 80’s VHS tape and the sound doesn’t align with their mouths. Tried freeview, sky and virgin

I’m watching on Freeview 236, wonder if different on other platforms? The video synch and sound quality can be so bad I can’t watch the screen. It is your priority issue to fix.

I am watching on Freeview, the sound is terrible, sounds like you’ve got cardboard boxes on your heads, even in the studio! I can only just hear you even with the sound full volume! I turn to other channels and it’s fine and I have to turn the volume down! Please sort it !!!!!!!!

@abline11 @tompfoster @GBNEWS Problem seems to be with Freeview 236.... Picture and sound quality seems poor in comparison to the website and other Freeview channels. Must be something to do with choice of camera type not being compatible with 236
