Hi Janet.
If you have a compatible TV, make sure the software is up-to-date, this will
vary depending on the TV you have. Once the channel loads, you will be
prompted with a setup screen asking you to make some selections for the
text-to-speech and visual magnification and contrast options and this will be
explained to you including how to navigate the menu using your remote. If this
isn’t happening then your TV either isn’t compatible or the TV is not connected
to the internet which it needs to be for the service to work.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim, my telly is a smart telly with internet connection and when I go to
channel 555 it says access but no more is there something else I should do on
that particular channel?

Hi Janet.
You need to have a smart internet connected TV for the service to work and the
TV needs to be one of the manufacturers and model ranges referenced in the
article or on the freeview channel 555 help pages. I have tried this on my LG
tv’s and this works really well. All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi everyone
I came across this article whilst browsing Google news and thought it might be
of interest to those who have Freeview play TV devices. This is something we
have been waiting for for a long time and which is universally accessible to
everyone with compatible devices. Take a look and have fun browsing :-)
