Some will have, but I don't think we'll be processing, just in
case we miss something. UK commercials aren't a huge percentage
of broadcast time (unlike some other countries) so they're not
such a bother. As we're recording all welsh language material
broadcast, we'll also capture (the unusual) welsh language
advertisements broadcast, which can be of historical interest.

I doubt whether we have the right to record any encrypted
transmissions, I think our remit only extends to free-to-air.

Thanks for the info - this is really helpful.
