The mic sounded fine, surely the change could have waited 10 seconds until they went to the first story?

I do have the rest of the rehearsal run, but it’s lost in a large pile of videos now.

@tvcl has access to raw satellite feeds. Apparently the BBC distribute feeds of the News at Six/Ten globally for international use by partners (Seven in Australia I’d presume), and allow a lot of studio pre-bulletin preparations to go to air.

Really cool, but also probably illegal to access and record.

I would think it’s for ABC and SBS.

The feeds are broadcast free-to-air and unencrypted. As for uploading, pretty much everything anyone uploads from any TV station would similarly be copyrighted.

That’s surprising. Which satellite?

Presuming that those feeds are only in SD, SBS wouldn’t source their 7am broadcast of the BBC Six O’Clock News from there because that bulletin does air in native HD on LCN-30 the last I checked.

It’s on D2.

Embarrassing. It’s always funny when some Slovenian news channel rips off another broadcaster wholesale, can’t believe Nine did it.

Not much of a difference between Nine and a Slovenian news channel nowadays.
