  1. I don’t know what is going on with SBS viceland but they’ve just finished showing The Fifth Element & it’s started again & looking at the guide it’s going to be shown another 4 times, one after the other 😂. #SBS #Freeview.

  2. Ah.. a rare piece of ‘informative’ and ‘facts-based reporting from the #ABC. This article sheds quite a few flood-lights on the #migration political debate and calls out recent #LNP talking points for what they are… so much #racist BS. It is a well written piece by Gareth Hutchens based on historical facts and a recent #research paper from ANU (with a link to it).

    Well worth the read, especially if you need facts to inform family members caught in the #propaganda fed to us by #msm and #freeview TV channels (also no small a number of social media ‘trolls’).

    “The paper says Coalition governments have contributed "significantly more than Labor governments" to increasing temporary immigration levels in Australia over the past quarter of a century.” Though, it must be said, largely with bi-partisan support.

  7. Freeview and Sky TV viewers lose access to 3 channels

    If you have a Freeview or Sky TV box, you’ve lost access to three music channels. Parent company…

  8. #Petition #UK #FreeView

    Terrestrial television, received through an aerial, known as Freeview, is under serious threat of being scrapped

    Within months the Government will decide whether to turn off terrestrial signals & rely solely on internet based TV (IPTV)

    This means every household would be forced to take out a fixed broadband contract to continue watching their favourite TV programmes

    Radio reception & signals for emergency services could also be put at risk

  9. My TV has gone bonkers.
    At least I think it's the TV rather than the aerial.
    I'm not receiving some of the channels from the East Midlands Waltham transmitter.
    I am getting good reception on channels 29, 34 & 35 but nothing from 31, 32 or 37
    The various checking sites say there's no reported problems (and I'm not sure which of my neighbours still use terrestrial TV )

    It's a good job I've got Freesat and a Roku thingy, and, that we rarely watch the idiot box on Sundays.

  10. My Wales-centric old-school "anachronistic analogue" Freeview TV guide is back online!

    Bear in mind that my Raspberry Pi server isn't mission-critical internet-backbone hardware, but a free-time hobby project...so it's taken me a few days to restore it...and there may be dropouts...

  12. Freeview adds two new channels to your TV in latest free content shake-up

    If you don’t pay to get Sky TV in your living room, you may well have a Freeview-enabled…

  13. Replacing Sky / Virgin media with a Freeview recorder. Looking good so far, it integrates well with all the catch-up setvices, and a software update just added YouTube.

  14. @dimwittedly
    In all seriousness this is very irritating. I sort my channels alphabetically and so now "Dave" begins with a "U" so I never notice it right at the end of the listing.
    In other news, why the actual fuck are we being infested with these vile American religious channels on Freeview all of a sudden.
    I'd much rather have sensible foreign stations on there like #France24 and #NHKWorld

  15. Just a moan about tech. We bought a new TV (Samsung) at the weekend, and linking it up was easy both for free catchup services (BBC iPlayer etc) and our two paid-for services. Nice picture.
    But, it was weirdly difficult to find how to switch between Freesat and Freeview inputs.
    Is the best answer a conspiracy theory; or, is switching between aerial/dish inputs a really very unusual British ask??
    (Only the Samsung smart handset can do the switch AFAIK. )

  18. @mikegalsworthy
    Presumably this is why there is an increasing number of nauseating bandwidth-wasting American religious channels popping up on #Freeview #TV these days.
    Didn't this crap use to be illegal?
    #WTF

  19. There apperas to be a new #Freeview channel with the slightly idiotic name "U&Eden". Anyway, it's showing The Colony in Space beginning at 0905 in the morning (14th May) in case anyone would like to know.
    The next day (Thr 15th) at the same time it's The Daemons.
    And so on at the same time each day :-)

  20. "Rewind TV" is a kind of amusingly amateurish knock-off version of (the excellent) Talking Pictures TV.
    However, on the plus side it does have Drop The Dead Donkey. Hurrah!

  25. Who's the annoying twat who thought it would be a good idea to stick the two characters "U&" with no spaces in front of a random selection of #Freeview #TV channels so that they no longer sort in the right order and are difficult spot in the on-screen schedule?!

  26. Any #Freeview viewers in the West of Scotland (#Blackhill Transmitter) having issues with U&Drama channel blanking out momentarily periodically. Did notice the channel Logo was visible the last time when it did it.

  27. The feed seems to be 1 minute delayed behind the feed which was itself delayed with respect to analogue TV back when they were still being transmitted.

    Gone are the days when I would hear simultaneous yells emanating from open windows as I walk outside avoiding watching major sporting events.

    Wonder if I can figure out what service people are tuned into based on the delay.

  28. The #bbc_iplayer feed seems to be 1 minute delayed behind the #Freeview feed which was itself delayed with respect to analogue TV back when they were still being transmitted.
