    @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

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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.

    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

    @ElRaynerista There is a saying "there is no such thing as bad publicity" Many, will have never heard of GB news (Sky 115, Freeview 236), before the negative publicity but I guarantee a high amount who didn't know may have looked for it, which is great news for a fledgling channel.

  • squeezyjohn John Spiers (@squeezyjohn) reported

    @chrisbates3 @ITVSport I’m not watching it on the internet. I’m watching it on Freeview! The picture keeps on freezing with audio glitches. It’s a problem with their feed from the ground.

    @RacingFlamingo @i_horseracing oooooh. It's not HD on Freeview but that might be me... thanks, will see if I can fix that.

    @GBNEWS @afneil Such a shame you’re all the way down the freeview channels on no.236 while the BBC are still squatting on the defunct BBC3 freeview channel no.7… Maybe after the teething troubles are sorted this is something to aspire to? Kindest regards

    My ITV has gone funny - briefly - twice. Anyone else?! Thank heavens I have STV and Freeview, if it’s an ITV or Sky problem! #ENGSCO #ITVFootball
