Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Aberdare and nearby locations:

  • 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)

  • 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

    @leefreshprince I have a Sony Bravia which claims to allow Freeview recording to USB media, but doesn't. It can certainly read USB media but I've never got it to write. Streaming allows me to pause and rewind, unlike my main linear TV.

    @mallycuz @darrenhunter2 @GBNEWS Lol I literally get 20 crap channels on my freeview 😩

  • Shaunaskins121 Shaun askins (@Shaunaskins121) reported

    @itvnews Thank **** for bad reception on freeview won't have to watch this shower of shite

  • ASorockyj Antony Sorockyj (@ASorockyj) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @micknufc Freeview down again in Nottingham how long before all working?

  • FrancisAShailes Francis A Shailes (@FrancisAShailes) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @berkobabe UK, but I don't have a TV that can get Freeview. I had a digibox but it's very poor at reception now (I'm near Bristol). I wish one day TPTV could be fed to the internet like Drama and Yesterday etc.... but I know there are obstacles to that.

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @Danny_Acklam @StarTrek When I'm guessing is march 2022 at earliest in the new Paramount plus streaming service. I would say if we put enough pressure on they might put it @paramountnet_uk on Freeview for now until streaming is available.

  • James__Parr James Parr (@James__Parr) reported

    @Shires_Rich We should start a petition to get Star Trek aired on freeview tv so that anyone can watch it without having to pay for a premium streaming service.

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

    *in some areas only. The national version of That's TV, with the same schedule except the local news at 6 and its early morning repeat is down on Freeview 91, again in some areas (but not necessarily the same areas) only.

  • JSpaced10 JSpaced but Christmas 🎄 #BLM (@JSpaced10) reported

    @TheWarLlama Why does it feel like three seasons is Netflix’s hard limit for new content, while having billions of seasons of unwatchable crap available on Freeview?

  • adiospantaloons Trumpet Compulsory (@adiospantaloons) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @Simon_Pegg I wish. I can't seem to watch your channel, no matter how hard I track it down. No website or app seems to stream it, and we can't get Freeview as aerials don't work in our wooded part of the country :-(
