    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    No channel 83? Do all the obvious checks retune still not working? @Freeview

  • Mac_WiFi Andrew McHale (@Mac_WiFi) reported

    @TheCMReed @Potato_Fi @TurtleBeach Nope, no change 😫 POV1 is “stuck” in freeview mode so I can’t do things like select the throttle in training mode. I’m guessing this isn’t an issue on yours then which gives me hope for a fix from TB

  • adhodgson Andrew Hodgson (@adhodgson) reported

    Does anyone know if ITV had issues with their audio description on Freeview HD channel 103 lately and if its safe to record ITV HD now? I was reading there were issues on that channel back in the summer. Want to start recording the winter season programmes.
