ETA: If NBN use a dirty feed they must certainly get a clean version of Millionnaire Hot Seat, or play it out themselves, as it has no TCN9 news supers. The feed for Central Coast and Gold Coast must be watermark free too (this of course raises the question of what a “clean feed” really is - it means different things in different circumstances).

This was posted to Nine (NBN) thread last year:

So NBN plays Hot Seat off a clean feed with no pop-ups and their own bugs/graphics. I think they do this to avoid any in-program crawls that may go to air for Nine News on the dirty feed (though when I watched on Monday there were no news crawls on Nine). I also think they play the program off their own servers rather than off a Nine feed because I saw most segments going to air at different times (slightly earlier) on NBN compared to Nine. Here’s some side-by-side comparisons of Nine and NBN…
