@bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

.@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes aren’t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the “normal” ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

@bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

@FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

@DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

Finally got to a point in the day when I could do some book writing, and Mum's Sky box started smelling of smoke. So, instead, we spent the time calling Sky to get it serviced and my teaching Mum how to access the OnDemand services (Freeview doesn't work for some reason)

@nosketandrugby @DimarcoRichard @YouGov If I cancel netflix I can still watch channel 4,itv or all the other freeview channels which use an advertiser model.

@Smudge1979 Hi Mark. Any channel changes are done by Freeview rather than us. It's likely that it's been moved to a different channel group (MUX) which has a weaker signal than what it was on previously so other channels in the same group e.g BBC News HD will also have a weak signal.

@SmoothRadio trying to listen via Freeview channel 718, reception has been poor for the last 14 days sometimes to the point of crap, Location Warwick via Sutton Coldfield, internet radio is the same.

@danwootton Tell us, we're you Exec Editor of the Sun last year when it put up its price by 5p a day, which is 30p a week, which is £15.60 a year? Were you outraged then? Or are you just trying to hawk your new bosses channel by playing down something which cofunds Freeview?

@chrvashby07 Thanks for letting us know Chris, we'll pass this onto the tech team to look into. Were you watching live on Freeview or using another service?

@hauchmagandy @GBNEWS The idea of an unbiased and independent news channel has never been tried in the UK. I'm interested in seeing how it looks... but not at the expense of having Sky, a Freeview box or paying the BBC **** tax.

@FreeviewAdvice hi there, I have had no freeview signal throughout my entire house since this morning, can't see any outages mentioned on the site so I was wondering if you could help?

TVs like those from LG, which have both Freeview and Freesat EPGs, but where you currently can't just quickly flick from one EPG to another, due to licensing issues, could in the future have better integration between each other... Freeview already wants to have IP+DTT in 1 EPG.
