Seven On-Air Presentation

[Petarkco]

Looks like the relaunch is on, the BCM feed just used a popup with the new look.

[Sully]

Timed for the House Rules Grand Final? And maybe they wanted this done before dealing with th launch of the new channel?

[Dj_Cazzah]

Just like to stress that those links are old and need updated to the new formula. They have been testing all week last week especially with Regional QLD with different feeds. The new one is universal and just needs the 3 letter code updated per link.

And was that a new intro for Home and Away?

[David]

Nope.

@Sully

Looks like they’re going to be bringing back the ‘second line’ (promotional) in the PRG, which has predominantly been missing for a year now. But looks like it’ll be ‘stacked’, judging by an early cap from 7Food.

I don’t think that ‘stacked’ PRG is the end result. Look at it compared to the other channels. They’re clearly testing.

@Petarkco

@Sully Skyfall appeared on one of the PRGs so the theory that whoever is entering the text is a Bond fan might be correct.

The Spy Who Loved Me and The Man With The Golden Gun appear on a couple of the PRGs shown above too

Which old links are you referring to? The correct ones with npc replacing bcm were posted.

[Petarkco]

Looks like the NPC steams have been pulled.

I wonder when the new on screen presentation for Seven will launch?

[SydneyCityTV]

Probably at the same time “Open Shop” pops up on the multiplex would be my guess.

Not sure whether we really should be calling it a full On-Air Presentation change though. OK, so the PRGs and watermarks will most likely change with the switch in playout from BCM to NPC but everything else was updated at the start of this year. Knowing Seven, we’ll probably have the current look promos, etc in use (even if they’re not really that much different, compared to the 2016-19 package) for a few years.

[NQCQTV2]

The play out of 7 Food Network in Regional QLD appears to have changed over to NPC tonight.

The watermark present is now the one with “Queensland” underneath the channel logo, as was present on the NPC testing streams.

All other 7 channels are still as before, i.e.
“Townsville > 7”

[SydneyCityTV]

The PRG design on 7Food Network here in Sydney tonight looks similar to the one that we saw on the NPC testing streams - not sure what’s with these black bars to the side of the picture though!

[lexington]

Something to do with the sync pulse of the graphics generator I think

[WAtvVideos]

@TC25 Please see this announcement.

Interesting graphic tonight before The Martian. Said that a show was streaming on 7Plus, followed by Bend It Like Beckham on 7Flix, then a countdown from 5 for the start of The Martian.

Looked quite good graphically, unfortunately couldn’t cap it.

[Sully]

Didn’t Seven trial this in early 2018? End credits split screen with a short promo for something else on another channel, followed by a short promo the succeeding program with a countdown?

Stopped after the Pyeongchang Winter Olynoics or maybe it was the Gold Coast Comm Games I think?

[Sully]

Update - as to @Qwerty’s comment above

Transitions through (8:34pm) with light background music but no V/O

[spw68]

Saw something similar maybe Tuesday night?!
