    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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.

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • groovicat groovicat 💚 (@groovicat) reported from Adlington, England

    @Sillyshib Heartbeat, ssshhh, it's never been off. You can watch Heartbeat every day on freeview

    @madebygoogle does your Google TV support Freeview app in UK. The web seems to suggest yes but I can't find the app

  • JHorb1 John Horb 💙🇺🇦 (@JHorb1) reported

    @ITVXhelp @Loochst3r Apparently, due to last minute technical issues, could be a few weeks before ITVX is available on some Freeview boxes, eg Manhattan.

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @Matt_1269501 What would you do - upgrade the UK's internet infrastructure so that everyone can get the BBC over 5G or the internet (reasonably impossible) or replace Freeview with an encrypted service? (also impossible)

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    @TonyB2929 Hello Tony, Do you have a screenshot of the issue (or a video) so we can better understand what's going on? What model is your Samsung TV? Are you using Freeview or any other service to watch our content? Thanks!

  • HobbitsWife Hobbits Wife 💙 (hobbitswife@fosstodon.org) (@HobbitsWife) reported

    Oh good so no @ITVX on @FreeviewTV then? #ItvHin refuses to load. Seems an odd decision not to support freeview!

  • CaptainHippo Chris Cain (@CaptainHippo) reported

    Hi @davechannel @arqiva. Trying to watch Room 101 on Freeview and screen keeps going black at random intervals. Lasts about a second. Other channels are fine, including others on the ARQA mux. So would seem to be Dave specific issue.
