Nine Traffic Network.
It’s aligned this time!
Good fix 9.
Similar “LIVE HD” w/m seen on 10 Bold this afternoon (with addition of Paramount+ Logo).
Noticed a slight glitch with the w/m - it disappears just before an when a sponsor shown.
Does 9s WWOS logo do that when there’s an ad of that style?
I’ve seen both styles. I think it depends where in the chain the ad is inserted versus where the watermark is inserted. For example, the watermark is more likely to shrink with the main vision if the ad is inserted at the presentation level as the OB production inserts the watermark at their end.
This very issue of watermarks and sponsor graphics playing nicely during sport is why WIN re-instated the dotty logo in Adelaide in Perth way back when. I was lucky to be in contact with an STW employee at the time. They couldn’t afford to invest in equipment that allowed them to insert sponsor tickers during the cricket while simultaneously covering up the dotty WWOS watermark. Now I’m sure there were many other reasons why it made no financial sense to stick with dot-less, but this specific limitation was the straw that broke the camels back.
It looks like 10 has the same problem.
Not a glitch, it’s deliberate and has happened forever.
Surprised they didn’t attempt to put a Nine watermark on this too.
