Is it though? The promo leading into that video was also full HD, was just the ABC logo animation at the start of the opener?
It’s all Full HD in my video file. I would say it’s a YouTube problem.

With the News Channel taking the ACT Election coverage, ABC Foxtel still got a dedicated bulletin at 7pm presented from the News Channel set tonight:

That’s what happens all the time.
I have seen that presenter a few times and I think she is terrific. Her fashion reminds me of Lee Lin Chin.

More Relevant to More Australians
ABC News is doing an incredible job in a difficult year. We’ve never had more Australians coming to us for trusted information and outstanding coverage.
Currently, we’re holding a series of briefing sessions with our teams to talk in-depth about our 2020-23 editorial strategy, More Relevant to More Australians.
The strategy aligns with the ABC’s Five-Year Plan 2020-25, which lays out the next steps as the ABC continues to transform from a traditional broadcaster to the nation’s most trusted and valued digital content provider across all platforms.
The News strategy has four pillars:
1 . We want to be part of more communities
While we’re showing growth in reach and relevance, our audience profile has always been particularly strong in the inner cities and in the bush, while people in the suburbs of our cities and towns have been under-represented. We know we can do a better job getting into the outer suburbs and telling the stories of those communities, too.
The goal is to ensure we’re covering all the key issues that matter to people. For example, ABC News already does excellent and comprehensive coverage of all aspects of climate change, and we’ll keep doing that. As well as that, we want to make sure we’re doing an equally good job covering other key issues that are also important to people and affect all of our lives.
When we grow our relevance to a broader cross-section of the community, we become even more central to the lives of Australians. We can be more culturally, socio-economically and gender diverse. And we can grow audiences at a time when it’s assumed the mainstream media is inevitably shrinking.
2. We want to be more approachable
This is about conversational storytelling; not assuming knowledge; and making our great content accessible to people who aren’t news junkies. An example of this is the Hobart newsroom’s approach to a story on housing affordability.
3. We will keep quality journalism at our core
Quality is in our DNA and that will never change. The ABC is the home of Australia’s best and most trustworthy journalism.
4. We need to be more available on demand
The long-term trend shows Australians are moving away from linear schedules, so we need to ensure our content is available to them wherever they are, whenever they want it.
Ensuring our storytelling and coverage is relevant to all communities, maintaining our quality standards, and making our content fully accessible to audiences, means we can do the best possible for all Australians.
And that will see ABC News stay as relevant and valuable to future audiences as we have been to previous ones and clearly are to current ones.

I’m starting to like the set much more than what I did when it first came out.

I would have to say it’s the best on Australian Television (that whole studio set - breakfast, insiders etc) I love it.

I wish ABC would clean up the NSW set a bit.
There are lights and other equipment constantly in the frame when they don’t need to be. They need to raise them a bit.
Much better when the camera is lowered/tilted down a bit

I’m not sure there’s space.
Easily solved by modifying the camera angle very slightly as you’ve pointed out.
