Cable and Satellite and Streaming versions of the linear broadcast channels were all affected too, they all run through same playout centre, though Cable and Satellite were restored quicker as there wasn't the same regional system complexities as DTT. As I said in the first post, my recording on my V6 from C4HD didn't record anything of the show I was trying to record, an it was an hour in length.
Apparently Streaming of the linear broadcast channels were bottom of the queue to get restored according to reports I read late last night.
It didn't affect all of terrestrial, just those that use Red Bee Media for playout. The BBC's systems apparently switched immediately to Salford so viewers didn't notice except for the continuity elements of their regional channels.
The whole thing seems to have occurred around about 6.30pm. Though the place I read it wasn't exactly convincing, so maybe I'll find a more accurate account this morning.
