That’s how I understood it. I was told that it was a manual process of uploading the clips and they had started on the Country channel.
I do agree it’s a half hearted effort at the moment compared to the excellent local channels. A

Agreed. It feels it’s just currently internationally successful artists that are featured at the least on Classic. Looks very budget and to British tastes
It does sound promising the improvements
Nick Music has a lot of Dutch Music Videos, but the Australian and New Zealand version are in a Transaction Period.
Makes sense. The payout is mainly out of Amsterdam
While Australia is Celebrating the New (Actually Revived) MTV Channels, The UK is Closing Down Three of their own: https://www.sportsmole.co.uk/entertainment/news/mtv-to-close-three-uk-channels-next-week_406279.html

Why are Australia continuing Club MTV while the UK’s Closing?
Different trends in other countries I suppose? Each station would be run independently.

INCOMING…THREE NEWBIES HAVE JOINED THE PARTY
BRAND NEW GEORDIE SHORE
PREMIERES WEDNESDAY, JULY 29 AT 7AM, ON MTV
Tune into Geordie Shore Wednesday, July 29 at 7am and encored in prime time at 9.30pm. You can also watch on demand anytime and download to own from July 30.
Filmed in a pre-lockdown world, before the isolation blues, social distancing and endless zoom quizzes, in one family home two days were Shore to NEVER be the same…
The Geordies may be no strangers to tashing-on, touring the world and taking on the toon full throttle, but are they ready for these three newbies to explode into the Geordie house and onto our screens? Geordie Shore returns to MTV on Wednesday, July 29, at 7am and will encore at 9.30pm .
Last series we welcomed back Geordie royalty James Tindale and Abbie Holborn into the family, and this time around they’ve proper made themselves at home. Joining them are Chloe and Nat , more single than ever, and ready to make up for lost time. Beau and Nathan are also back , who continue their bromance, much to the envy of Beau’s beau Bethan.
Our Geordies have always been up for a party, but how will they fair when this lot drop in?
Amelia Lily may be a new recruit to the Geordie gang, but she’s no newbie to the telly world.
Many will recognise this blonde bombshell as third place finalist on The X Factor UK in 2012.
Skyrocketing to success at the tender age of sweet 16, Amelia is FINALLY ready to let loose her inner wild child, and let’s just say she certainly makes up for lost time.
Ant Kennedy works in a call centre selling utilities but lives for his weekends on the toon.
A typical Geordie lad, he loves his tatts, MMA training and of course the girls. But under his ‘lad’ exterior Ant is a self-confessed softie.
He has always had long term relationships and admits he’s no stranger to pain, having had his heart broken in the past.
Last but by no means least, Louis Shaw smashed the first series of MTV’s True Love or True Lies after fibbing his way to first place.
Louis has the gift of the gab that immediately makes him a hit amongst both the lads and lasses. Louis says, “I’m a bit of a rascal so should fit right in!”.
Luckily the family members are on the scene to keep things in check and welcome the new recruits with open arms. Get ready for bromances, romances and a whole lot of surprises.
Turned it on today to see some proper 4:3 Clips and something somewhat resembling a broadcast resolution. Long way to go however better than the sub VHS crap that’s been on

Catfish: The TV Show
Premiering Tuesday August 11 at 9.30pm
MTV’s “Catfish: The TV Show” makes epic return with its first ever virtual season
MTV announced today that “Catfish: The TV Show” will return with an entirely virtual season starting Tuesday, August 11 at 9.30pm .
While the world may still be socially distancing, people are online now more than ever looking for social connections and answers. “Catfish” will go to the ends of the internet to find them.
For the first time ever, Executive Producer and host Nev Schulman and co-host Kamie Crawford work together remotely to do what they do best: track down the truth.
This season, Nev and Kamie have their work cut out for them as they must play by new rules, encounter new obstacles and dive headfirst into the world’s ‘new normal’ to uncover lies and potentially find true love.
“Catfish: The TV Show” is produced by Critical Content and Catfish Picture Company for MTV. Sitarah Pendelton and Leanne Mucci are Executive Producers for MTV
A Pity the Brits don’t have their own version of Nickmusic yet and neither is CMT since Country Music is’nt Popular over there.

Not sure about anyone else, but can honestly say I have barely watched the MTV channels since they replaced V & Max.
It just feels like a downgrade.

Surely that is wrong as it’s way too early.

It airs on MTV from 10am AEST on Monday, surely a broadcast at 6:30pm on FTA would be fine?
