Yes, Cambridge did. So viewers in the former East (West) region have (temporarily) lost animations in the migration over to Norwich. This is the inverse of what happened in Oxford, where the graphics didn't animate but Southampton's do.
And 99% of the viewers won't care or even have noticed.
Cambridge actually had a Viz setup because of how new the building was and when it was opened - there was some work going on at the time to rollout Vizrt across English Regions. It never happened, other solutions have been trialled such as CasparCG, which is what Birmingham use.
I think the more important part of the HD upgrades has to be the cameras and vision mixers, as viewers do notice that when most regions opt out now it's like someone has smeared vaseline over the picture, even my nan thought her TV had broken during the regional news and was phoning my brother in law up concerned.
