  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @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

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

    Shoutout to all the Freeview kids who didn’t have channels like Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon and Jetix growing up.

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, I’m struggling to get a consistent signal when watching BBC One and BBC Two on my Freeview box. I even retuned my box and changed regions and that hasn’t solved the problem. Could you please look into if BBC transmitters are experiencing issues? Thank you.

    @firstdogonmoon 7minus. Commercial TV or freeview gets a big NO from me regardless of what's on. Some exceptions made for SBS which should never have been forced down that road.

  • JamesHaughton2 James Haughton (@JamesHaughton2) reported

    @JackPittBrooke Going on to the Super League, would those owners have wanted games on the BBC or another Freeview channel? They might even have considered a Super League version of MOTD too much content not to put on their own streaming service or in a very expensive TV contract

    @Amanda45887585 What service you using? Freeview, sky, virgin? The channel list may need updating.

  • Nicky_Harrison_ 𝗘𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗸𝘁𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗡𝗶𝗸𝗶💁🏻‍♀️🇬🇧 (@Nicky_Harrison_) reported

    @scrane__ @GBNEWS 1/2 I wasn't keen on #NanaAkua being replaced anyway, but when I seen him, I soon found out he was a ****. I didn't hang around either. His schedule was sent to #Freeview by #GBNews on Monday, or was it Tuesday? It went on our TV EPG's straight away. Today, Nana's new show..

    @BromleyCrossBoy I’m afraid I’m in the stone age with Freeview (absolutely not a fan of the paid services, the horrid Murdochcracy or Branston Pickled)

  • pwb413 Astro Boy (@pwb413) reported

    @DuncanUK45 Let's not forget the free crowd booster tickets! The 100 will only attract "locals" who are close to the preferred Test Match quality grounds. Remote County supporters have little interest in travelling to this watered down T20 series - like me watch on Sky or occasional Freeview
