    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @PaulLittler4 I've paused it a couple of times but I'm only on the Freeview SD version so it's not that clear. Maybe one day when there's a Blu-Ray re-issue :)

    @PhilipsCare_UK hi, all my freeview apps (iPlayer, itv hub all4) have stopped working on my TV. Performed update on tv. Still no joy. Model is 55OLES805/12. Tried clearing data and checked I have HBBTV cookies enabled. Any help appreciated.

    @InspireAndStyle Hi, Karen. If you're getting FVP-300 on all Freeview Play players, check to see if there's a software update available for your Freeview Play device. If you've done an update and the player are still not launching on the TV, contact the devices manufacturer for support

    @Chris29Cunningh Are you watching it on freeview?. Yeah it’s bad, but ok on sky or the app.

  • effcee1969 Fiorenzo Cecere 🇮🇹 (@effcee1969) reported

    Can anyone help, please? I'm tempted to switch to BT TV which includes Freeview (with all terrestrial channels). Before I place an order, I'd need to check whether these terrestrial channels (and any other channels) provide subtitles via BT TV. Thanks! #BT #subtitles
