    Anyone here who lives in London, who watches, or at least, can watch Freeview TV (terrestrial, rather than satellite/streamed TV), can you check whether it's working? I'm not home, so can't check. Wondering if there is a Crystal Palace transmitter problem. Thanks

    @JBlairSco @Gwyn_Dr @S4C There is probably an issue with having a ‘commercial’ channel on a BBC multiplex as well. It would make more sense, S4C would be able to broadcast to England too - and would restore Great Movies Classics in Wales on Freeview too.

  • eddsirr Edd Sirr (@eddsirr) reported

    @JBlairSco @Gwyn_Dr @S4C It’s not a connection error or a broadcaster error- it’s an error by the company that broadcasts the Freeview multiplex. There is literally nothing S4C could have done themselves to fix it.

    @FreeviewAdvice JVC tv with freeview play is throwing up error FVP-300 on iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4 and My5. Have power cycled the TV and reset the wifi and still getting the error. Aerial is fine as live freeview channels still working, any idea how to fix this?

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Channel 4 on satellite is working (if you want to watch Deadpool 2). Problems persist on Freeview in some regions - this is because of the way C4 is distributed on terrestrial TV. Example C4 SD: E Mids Freeview: blank screen with 4 logo top left. North East Freeview: normal.

    @TheWeegieDoctor Yeah, I do not miss that not coming off my pay every month. I tend to watch streaming stuff more often than live TV anyway, and you can get the More 4 and BBC apps and watch stuff. I just use the Apple TV for everything these days. Can't get a proper signal for the freeview here.

    @taneaspen I'll have you know I have never spent money to "see things" like that. You being born with bits and bobs doesn't really count as "Freeview".

  • lanyon_mark Mark Lanyon (@lanyon_mark) reported

    @NadineDorries I hope you are going to hold a public enquiry in to the lack of an emergency plan for the state broadcaster Channel 4. The channel is still down on Freeview HD after several hours, other broadcasters have been able to recover/switch locations. This is unacceptable

  • willmgreenhalgh William Greenhalgh (@willmgreenhalgh) reported

    @canveyboy1972 @Channel4 Apple TV is still broken then, from what I've read satellite was the first to return then they focused on freeview, I guess apple TV and other Internet based services are last on the list

  • PinderBanthorpe Surviving Baby Boomer 🌈💙#EmbraceBrexitMyArse Ⓥ (@PinderBanthorpe) reported

    P*ssed off with @Channel4 tonight. Settled down to watch #Deadpool2 - no HD, (on #Freeview), but more importantly, no subtitles! For the hard of hearing, like myself, subtitles are the only way we can follow the dialogue. Poor showing. 😡

    @TDTV_Gaming The reason for the BBC losing the streaming business is coz you choose crap programs for us to watch! That goes for General TV programs including what we’re to watch on Freeview we’re fed up with watching repeats. This is Why people don’t want to pay for TV licenses!
