    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

  • enolapycroft enola | saw skz 28.7.19!! (@enolapycroft) reported

    I even tried to accept through advanced settings > freeview settings. I clicked terms and conditions and accept, still won’t accept the terms. Is this a freeview play issue or an issue with the tv?

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    At launch, BBC and Crown Castle multiplexes could only carry four SD channels each. This was the trade off between a robust signal and capacity. • At the time, Freeview had to use low power as it was shoehorned in around high power analogue broadcasts.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @enolapycroft Hi, there. If the TV isn't letting you accept the Freeview Play terms, check to see if there's a software update available for the TV. If there isn't, you'll need to contact the manufacturer of the TV for further support. Fraser

  • ITVChannelTV ITV Channel News (@ITVChannelTV) reported

    📺 JERSEY FREEVIEW UPDATE 📺 ITV, C4 and C5 are currently still off-air for around 4,000 homes that receive Freeview from a mast at La Collette. As Channel TV does not operate the transmitter, we're unable to confirm a timescale for when the full service will be restored. (1/2)

  • iadmcintyre Iain McIntyre (@iadmcintyre) reported

    @c4 why are your times out by an hour? I sat down to watch the Grand Prix at 11:30. Got some chat show instead. Checked online and the whole schedule on Freeview is an hour slow. At least I haven't missed the GP.

  • mwnciod y mwncïod (@mwnciod) reported

    @toolegs Some of the US MTV style paranormal investigation shows that used to appear on some of the Freeview channels were truly awful.

  • KeithCambs Keith Moss (@KeithCambs) reported

    @cleanfeed_ttvr Just need Freeview to get another one or more of their multiplexes converted to DVB-T2 to improve capacity and support more HD channels. PSB1 and PSB3 could still remain using DVB-T to provide a basic service to older devices.

  • Ike_Laudius Ike_Laudius (@Ike_Laudius) reported

    @ITV @FreeviewTV Have any issues been reported to you? My Freeview recorder is getting subtitles from all other stations, including ITV, it is just ITV3. Thanks.
