    @tomster36 Netflix and Amazon I have a subscription to but to use other streaming apps on one device, I don’t have freeview because it’s shit just use streaming services now

  • RoboJ1M RoboJ1M (@RoboJ1M) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @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 🙁

    How many channels does #C4 have on Freeview? Why can't they run their flagship news program (part of their Public Service) on time on the flagship channel? #c4news

  • DallasStarsUK UK Dallas Stars Fanatics (@DallasStarsUK) reported

    @soph_letitia It’s on FreeSports not Premier, you can watch it online or on FreeView if you can get it on your TV down there

  • martin_j_wilson Martin Wilson (@martin_j_wilson) reported

    @PaulLittler4 I've paused it a couple of times but I'm only on the Freeview SD version so it's not that clear. Maybe one day when there's a Blu-Ray re-issue :)

    @whatuptkhere The "freeview" apps now all require a sign in to watch the free to air streams. It's not enough to just sit through ads any more, they have to capture your personal data too.

    @stevebone1 @leethommo 82 freeview - do re-runs of great series. Currently re-running "Secret Army", which was an 80s series about getting British aircrew back to Blighty when they have been shot down. Allo, Allo was a comedy based on it.

    @BBCiPlayerForum I don’t understand why iPlayer has stopped using a grid channel and programme finder for everything that is showing on all the iPlayer channels? It’s a huge omission, makes no sense… I have to use the Freeview app on my phone to see what’s on. BBC pl fix!!

  • MikeARPowell The Black Jack (@MikeARPowell) reported

    @premierinn @ukJ0N If the TV signal is Freeview off a terrestrial aerial then this channel may be on Multiplex that can't be received by the current aerial installation. It is broadcast on the same COM 6 Multiplex as RT News (channel 234).

  • ChristchrchMick Michael Dowling (@ChristchrchMick) reported

    @smurfing66 I believe that is the case, although the actual Freeview channel depends on which transmitter you get your TV signal from. The other thing is that Radio Solent broadcasts different matches on different frequencies / Freeview channels (Cherries, Saints, Pompey and Eastleigh)
