@flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

@kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

@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

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)

@iMultitudes Probably aggressive compression as there’s only so some much bandwidth on freeview. You get artefacts when you push audio down quality levels.

@GBNEWS My problem is video. Constant pixelation and then feed drops altogether. Makes it unwatchable. Using freeview 236

@GBNEWS Give us a fireTV app. The Freeview app doesn't work even if you have the knowhow to sideload it so unless you pay for Sky or watch on a phone you can't easily watch at all. I'm too old to squint at a phone for hours.

It’s been suggested that Unite set up a “news and views” TV channel, initially a YouTube channel rather than something which seeks to get a broadcast license for Freeview. This isn’t an inherently bad idea, though it might be too risky for one union to do on its own.

@neddalton90 They are indeed. BUT, if they can sow the seeds of doubt in the minds of some "Covid enthusiasts", that's a good thing. Their presence on the Freeview platform means they have much larger reach than Talk Radio, so you never know.

@GBNEWS Unfortunately sound quality has been poor throughout. I am watching on Freesat and Freeview. The first night Andrew Neil's voice was not in sync with the pictures. Sound levels vary when changing to different locations. And yes black suits with a black background doesn't work.
