    @TDTV_Gaming The reason for the BBC losing the streaming business is coz you choose crap programs for us to watch! That goes for General TV programs including what we’re to watch on Freeview we’re fed up with watching repeats. This is Why people don’t want to pay for TV licenses!

  • lanyon_mark Mark Lanyon (@lanyon_mark) reported

    @NadineDorries I hope you are going to hold a public enquiry in to the lack of an emergency plan for the state broadcaster Channel 4. The channel is still down on Freeview HD after several hours, other broadcasters have been able to recover/switch locations. This is unacceptable

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @yulewalkalone This is what you would have seen from Freeview via The Wrekin. It has just fixed itself. C4+1 Midlands repeating all the issues of the last hour.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Why is S4C showing E4 on Freeview in Wales? On Freeview, S4C is normally bundled together with Channel 4's signal where it replaces E4. E4 in Wales is bundled with other commercial services, where it replaces GREAT! Movies Action. (1/2)

  • JBlairSco James Blair FRSA (@JBlairSco) reported

    @Gwyn_Dr @eddsirr @S4C Freeview went down. S4Cs links in the event of failure are not the best to this platform. As the psb broadcaster they would be able to connect directly, as sat link up or ip to VM. Saying it’s on other platforms doesn’t work with psb media. Need to universal access

  • Gwyn_Dr Gwyn Williams (@Gwyn_Dr) reported

    @JBlairSco @eddsirr @S4C But it's not an "on-air" failure. It is an issue at a third party site when the multiplex signals for Freeview are encoded.

  • Woody4563 Aaron Nicholas-Wood (@Woody4563) reported

    @BestDrWho @Telegraph And the British public are paying for this. The BBC are the worst channels on so called freeview.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    There's also still issues with subtitles and audio description. C4's Freeview services still running on less bandwidth than before 7pm Saturday.

    @TheWeegieDoctor Yeah, I do not miss that not coming off my pay every month. I tend to watch streaming stuff more often than live TV anyway, and you can get the More 4 and BBC apps and watch stuff. I just use the Apple TV for everything these days. Can't get a proper signal for the freeview here.

    @taneaspen I'll have you know I have never spent money to "see things" like that. You being born with bits and bobs doesn't really count as "Freeview".
