I cannot receive all of the channels or the picture or sound quality in Freeview is not what I would expect
Examples of poor Freeview reception would be intermittent loss of sound and/or picture, pixelating picture, blocky images, loss of channels, etc. In the unlikely event that you may experience issues with the reception of Freeview channels, it may be necessary to purchase a signal booster (only purchase if it is compatible with Freeview or has the Digital Tick logo on it). Before purchasing a new aerial or signal booster, check the

  • Freeview coverage in your area by visiting: www.freeview.co.uk to see what channels you should currently be receiving. When you change channels, on many models, there will be an indication of signal strength. As a general rule, the signal strength should be better than 90% to ensure good picture and sound quality.
  • Depending on the signal strength that the TV is receiving will depend on what course of action is necessary. Most modern TVs with Freeview use a similar type of tuner, therefore, if you have a problem with your current TV and believe exchanging it for another brand or
  • the model will solve the problem, unfortunately, it is highly likely that you will get the same results.
  • If your signal strength is between 70% – 85%
  • If you experience a ‘blocky’ picture and/or a few channels are missing; it may be possible to solve it simply by adding a low-cost signal booster with a gain of about 20 decibels.
  • If your signal strength is between 50% – 70%
  • If you’re missing quite a few channels and/or the picture quality or the sound quality is poor; it may be possible to solve it simply by adding a low-cost signal booster with a gain of about 25 to 40 decibels.
  • If your signal strength is below 50%
  • It is likely you will be missing many channels and/or the picture and sound is very poor; it is also likely that either you are not able to receive Freeview channels or your TV
  • Aerial is not equipped to receive Freeview.

Indoor Aerials

  • We do not recommend the use of indoor aerials for most installations, even the ones that say they are designed for
  • Freeview usually only operates correctly if you are in a very strong Freeview coverage area.

I want to connect my SCART-only device

  • If your device does not have a HDMI connection but has a SCART connection
  • You can connect it to the TV’s AV input (Usually Red,

Using a USB Memory Stick or Hard Drive with your USB Record TV

  • It is possible that your television has a built-in USB Media
  • A player or supports USB Recording from Freeview; this is normally referred to as a PVR function. In the case of USB recording, you will need a suitable
  • USB stick or compatible powered Hard Drive to use the feature. Note that the maximum size that the Television can support will be up to 400GB and that this will have to be formatted in the FAT 32 file format. For instructions on how to format your USB device, please see the FAQ entry below this one, or search “Format for FAT32” in the search bar above.
  • As there are many different brands and speeds available to purchase, we cannot guarantee all brands of USB sticks/
  • Hard Drive will be compatible with our TVs. The speed of the USB Stick or Hard Drive must be sufficient for the set to operate correctly, without suffering from issues where the sound is not in tune with the picture.
  • It is recommended that a minimum of 20mb/s read and 6mb/s write speed is used. In most cases, USB Hard
  • Drives are cheaper than USB Memory Sticks when comparing cost per Gigabyte.
  • Even though the USB port on most sets is specified as
  • USB 2.0, many USB memory keys are not suitable as there is a huge difference between the speeds of a low-cost/low-quality USB memory Stick compared to a higher-quality version. For example, on models of our TVs where a USB Key is included as part of the TV package, we will usually only use a Sandisk Extreme memory stick because we know these are fast as well as reliable. With this in mind, it is recommended that you use either a portable
  • USB Hard Drive (that is powered either independently or can take the power from one of the USB ports) or a USB 3.0 memory key.
  • USB 3.0 memory keys are becoming more and more popular and although they are higher cost than USB 2.0 equivalents, for both TV and PC use as they are significantly faster. USB 3.0 keys can be purchased at many high street stores or internet stores such as Ebuyer.com or Dabs.com etc.
  • If this does not solve your problem, please refer to the home page and navigate to your brand so you can download a user guide for your TV which will include a
  • USB compatibility table. Alternatively, you can contact us with the chat widget or click here to complete the feedback form.

Format a Hard Drive or USB Stick larger than 32GB into FAT32

  • If your Hard Drive or USB stick is greater than 32GB, formatting for FAT32 is not as easy as it should be.

  • Unfortunately, we saw an overall increase of incorrect installations to units, resulting in further delays to our customers without an operational TV. So, we took the decision to remove software downloads and instead, ask customers to report their TV serial and model so we can send software – either via email or on a USB stick.
  • If you require software for your TV because you have a link from a manual, please follow this link instead and fill out the form. We will be in touch within 24 hours to resolve your issue.
