I actually meant the whole processing chain for digital, encoding etc.
But it's actually much simpler, there is no live TV broadcast anymore:

Why is live TV on a delay?
Today, many live broadcasts on TV aren't truly live. Instead, broadcasters will transmit the feed with a delay of a few seconds. It's a simple procedure that gives them leeway in case something unrehearsed happens that can't be shown on screens.

I'll let you argue the point with the licensing guys. I'm just not going to watch what 'they' consider live tv any more.

I think I am in the clear, I avoid anything even remotely TV like the plaque. Totally despise the BBC and it's output.
