Motors TV on Freeview
Posted: 02 Mar 2014, 20:35
I know there are plenty of motorports fans here, so I'd like to share this with you - that MotorsTV is now available on Freeview channel 240 as part of the ConnectTV service (or Aqiva, I think it's called).
This doesn't mean everyone with freeview can get it, though, as it is delivered over the internet, so you need a so-called "Smart" device. Pretty much any such TV bought after 2012 should do it, plus any smart box including BluRay players with apps etc.
There are some teething issues - my new PVR device can receive the channel, but never gets passed the 'loading...' screen. Haven't tried properly with my other two devices yet. I know plenty of people are getting it just fine, though, and reports on the quality vary enormously.
