    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

  • jwripple John Woodman (@jwripple) reported

    @JulietJeater Send it back for a refund and look at TVs with a Freeview Player installed. Not sure if this is down to BBC or Apple - had to speak with various Apple people around the globe before I ended up with an Irish one who understood the problem.

  • glovelace Graham Lovelace (@glovelace) reported

    @jennypriestley @GBNEWS Wonder if same issues on Freeview?

  • VirtuaMcPolygon Rob Farmer (@VirtuaMcPolygon) reported

    @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 long full size, 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...

  • garybibby Gary Bibby (@garybibby) reported

    @JasonManford If she’s watching a sky or freeview box through it try a new HDMI lead. I’ve seen that issue before. If it’s doing it from it’s built in Tuner then it’s likely the panel and is for repair/replace.

  • thejohnfleming John Fleming (@thejohnfleming) reported

    1325. On a whim I looked at #GBNEWS on Freeview. The studio sound is still out-of-sync with the pictures. Oddly no problem on the ads. Amateur time.

  • ChrisTheDJ Chris Merriman (@ChrisTheDJ) reported

    Oh and the picture quality is awful - fuzzy on Freeview, and on the wrong framerate on Sky.

  • agw1437 A.G.W. 🇬🇧 (@agw1437) reported

    @GBNEWS gen qu for techie types: Why is there a synchronisation problem from the studio but not on the live video links? I’m watching on freeview - does that make a difference? Very curious but keep it simple - I’m a historian not IT.
