@itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

@virtualash tell your boys your TV quality is poor on Freeview. Whale's head will not look fuzzy. This can't be allowed to happen.

Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

@Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

@mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

@virginmedia Why would I report it to you? It's a normal telly with an outside aerial and Freeview. Iffy signal, rural area.

@foxtrotluna Not too bad, yeah. Tradeoff for us (well, my wife and kids, I hardly use it) is that we'd have to get a third-party DVR box for freeview, and they cost quite a few months worth of cheap-*** TV package.

@YouViewSupport Non-sub BT DTR-T2100 ok this morning. 2pm no Freeview channels 0% signal. Aerial direct into TV-all channels OK. Tried maintenance-zero happens after Step3 except 'Waking Up' ... After 3\4 cycles of waking up Youview loads. Retuning gives 0 aerial channels. Help?

@curryspcworld we purchased an LG OLED tv on the understanding that it had freeview play that gives us catchup tv such as uktv....... Help, we can’t find it, not too happy. Purchased this year........

(@retguru) reported
@virginmedia Still issues. Brand new box. Still can't watch catch up or Netflix without it constantly crashing. Even normal tv picture pixalating all the time. Never have any issues with freeview in bedroom so what's the point of having Virgin?

@Karl_Downey I have the problem that while Sky and Cable receivers get their @ITV news service in HD, @itvmeridian Thames Valley Freeview viewers only get broadcasts in SD. We get the news and weather for KENT (useless, I know) in HD and on +1. BBC is better in Oxon as we have our own version

I might live in London but my TV can't get a whole load of Freeview channels. I rescan every few days. Sometimes some channels reappear. Sometimes they disappear. Sometimes my signal gets worse. May as well live in a rural area. I'd probably have the same signal.

@La_Duff Look up common IP address & Subnet, DNS etc settings for your TV model on the internet & manually change them on the TV's Network settings, I used to have to re-set those settings all the time on my Freeview TV recorder box to get it to connect to my old router,
