  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @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

  • garethrichmond5 Gareth Richmond (@garethrichmond5) reported from Bury, England

  • Pic889 Dimitris (@Pic889) reported

    @gerardjasper This begs the question: Since you can't receive the entirety of BBC's broadcasts through generic DVB-T2 equipment (you need a special "Freeview HD" receiver), why not encrypt the service and give subscribers a CAM module to watch it? Let's see how many really want to pay for it.

  • DaisyDa49084920 Daisy (@DaisyDa49084920) reported

    @RespectIsVital @BBC I was lucky enough to have freeview throughout growing up and it's saddening that other generations won't.... Idk if this could be any help at all but perhaps a dvd player. You can get dvds pretty cheap at charity shops and library's. It won't be the same obviously but may help

  • CDProd95 Connor Dale (@CDProd95) reported

    @tjtex26 BBC1 was a bad example but Sky 1 isn't part of Freeview is it, as far as I can see if you want Sky Sports through sky and not now TV you need to have sky's contract for Sky 1 etc

  • Enlightenmentor Steve Cowie 🌠 (@Enlightenmentor) reported

    @TalkTV Is there any reason why your Freeview transmission is so poor quality? It looks like YouTube 240P25 upscaled.

  • What_JT_Thinks JT (@What_JT_Thinks) reported

    Come on @bt_uk when are you going to offer an internet only TV service including Freeview. It was there for a bit then taken away citing “software problems”. When is the release date? Then I can sign up.

  • geordieiceman Sharkey #FBPE 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@geordieiceman) reported

    @simonharris_mbd And they should have Betamax players too. None of these la di dah Freeview thingies. Poor people are just SPOILED...

  • jackyan Jack Yan 甄爵恩 (@jackyan) reported

    @RaewynScott1 I havenʼt looked into that Freeview on Demand yet but it sounds like I donʼt need to! 😯 Sounds like they want to become a streaming service and donʼt really want to do broadcast TV any more.

  • 1066shrimprail SHRIMP - Hastings (@1066shrimprail) reported

    Anyone else finding that DAVE and W channels on freeview are suffering from really annoying blackout screens? (Have retuned x2 so not the set).
