Yes. I receive SCA channels through VAST and WA channels through terrestrial.
Seven and Prime’s were identical in this case. But I doubt that was because Prime was using a dirty feed as we worked out yesterday. Last time I checked Prime was inserting their own watermarks during NFL on the left hand side.
No worries.
So is your GWN7 signal poor? Or did you just want VAST for it’s novelty?
I was part of the VAST pre-launch trial so they gave me a subscription. My local reception is fine, but if it wasn’t I’d only be able to access WA channels anyway.
Normal “HD” appeared in the bottom-right on 9HD during the ODI cricket.
Corrected now. Not sure why it occasionally does that, mid-program?
SCA has updated their sports watermark to the current Seven one today. So that’s both Seven affiliates using the same watermark. It looks like Seven has had words with their affiliates and enforced a standard across the board. Note that 7 Qld also went back to adding HD to the Live & Free bit a couple of days ago as well.

Yeah, seems like Seven want to enforce a ‘Seven Olympics’ ID thing across the country to me?
It might be IOC rules from what I can recall.
Correct, all logos and watermarks with Olympic rings attached go through a STRICT approval process with the IOC before they can be used.
It looks as though the gradient and slight colour difference on SCA’s version wasn’t part of the IOC agreement.
Southern Cross sometimes have an advert with the Southern Cross star logo and the Olympic Rings and a slogan of “Official Affiliate Broadcaster” or similar. It’s not on too often but is on occasionally after the Seven Olympic ads. Would had to have gained IOC approval too I believe.

That’s much more extreme than any of the countdown clocks Seven has had in H&A for like MKR before!! Nine must be getting quite desperate since they know MAFS may flop otherwise…
SBS and NITV are simulcasting programs this morning and both channels have the SBS and NITV watermarks on screen.
