    @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 🙁

  • thedxmo damo 🎃 (@thedxmo) reported from Bognor Regis, England

    @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

    @GBNEWS Sad story, but if he already owed £1400 the recent price rises aren't the cause of his problem. He also has a sky TV remote, perhaps switch to freeview as a start.....

  • blogmywiki Ask Me About My Aeropress™️ (@blogmywiki) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Hi! Has something happened to your signal from Crystal Palace on Freeview? I can’t receive you on channel 82 any more. Retuning didn’t help.

  • JulieSmith2001 Julie Smith (@JulieSmith2001) reported

    @iMultitudes Yes I can only get that channel through the Freeview box which I record on, can’t get it through the normal aerial as the signal is so bad here.

    @Helenmacca @helenamayb @NadineDorries They both make a lot of content these days but channel four already does that Big question is will it become subscription outside the TV licence in which case they will be depriving Freeview viewers of several channels & an online streaming service, hardly fair & worth pushing

    @bedford_colleen I think our TV is 40 something inches, had it a good few years but I've never watched it. Herself, who does watch TV, dumped Sky years ago - not worth the money she said; now uses something called Freeview (?).

    @GBNEWS Once people cancel the Sky or Virgin or BT tv packages and just watch Freeview - if they are still in poverty maybe some Domestic Science lessons on how to cook from ingredients - easy

  • PaulGrimes1992 Paul Grimes (@PaulGrimes1992) reported

    @GMB I cancelled my Virgin Broadband and went with Three £21 a month for unlimited 5G and a router which if you go away in the UK you can take it with you. Then just use Freeview went from £131 a month down to £19 a month for landline and £21 for broadband and its faster than VM

  • joonloons june lewins (@joonloons) reported

    @basestacking Check Freeview for the terrestrial channels in your area, and retune a couple of times to see if you get more stations. I use a Humax and smart tv so I can record TV programmes, but you should be able to just plug it into your tv. I find non-HD progs get a better signal.

    Hey @ITV, this is your annual reminder to fix your @itvhub app to play any video at all on a Freeview Play TV (LG). Will uninstall for now.

    @SherlocksSpring don't watch that crap, haven't since Wright did it. New name, same old bigoted **** from #ScourgeOfTheTvChannels who is no longer on my Freeview box. @gnomeicide
