@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

@TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

Why is TV so utterly ****? Freeview? Supposed to be 700 Channels. And 695 of them are Totally ******* Unwatchable! The other 5 consist of Repeats or Adverts! And they want you to pay £156 Quid for a TV License? NOT A CHANCE!

@BootstrapCook Sometimes. The cabling should work fine so long as the box and your TV have an HDMI port. Problem might be whether the Freeview signal in your area is strong enough to be picked up by a small aerial.

@RossMcCaff If internationals can’t be ring-fenced for freeview, surely to **** it can at least be required to be shown on actual television instead of some shite streaming thing.

@kieronmirch @TheNewsDesk It really doesn’t look or sound amazing on freeview. I’m not sure I can watch if the quality stays like this, I’m used to seeing tv in HD not blurry with awful sound
-
_insert witticism here_ 🏴
(@viridispicus) reported
@BootstrapCook It depends on signal strength, direction to transmitter, and what's in the way. Digital signals (such as Freeview) are broadly binary: the TV understands enough, you have a picture - or nothing. Amplifiers exist, but they amplify noise as much as signal, so beware promises.

@piersmorgan It took about 10 minutes to scroll down the channel list on freeview to find a manic loop enthusing over a lookalike GBNews. Don’t think I’ll be doing that again when Coronation Street is on the 📺.

@SkyHelpTeam It was the sky box. The tv was on freeview ok then pressed the home button to turn the box on and the message came up saying my set didn't support a specific picture format but i hadn't changed any pucture settings on the sky q box the previous day.

@BootstrapCook If the TV's relatively new it should have a built-in Freeview tuner. The aerial might be more of a problem though depending on how good a signal you get - digital's more sensitive than analogue, a poor signal makes it unwatchable rather than just snowy.
