Boards of Canada To Appear On TV? (UPDATED)

According to the press release here, (PDF) BBC2 Scotland's show The Music Show will feature (although in what capacity is unknown) Boards of Canada with their track Dayvan Cowboy, on 5 November at 7:30PM. Whether TMS is going to show the video, or they will be performing it live (which would be incredible to see), remains to be seen. Here's the relevant excerpt from the press release:

"In an exclusive set for The Music Show, The Fratellis perform three album tracks – Whistle For The Choir, Chelsea Dagger and Got Ma Nuts From A Hippie – recorded in BBC Scotland’s Glasgow studio.
Mixing up a concoction of 70s glam, 60s songwriting skills and a pinch of punk, The Fratellis slick sound has attracted plaudits across the land. Singer Jon, drummer Mince and bassist Barry recently ruled supreme in the album charts with their debut release, Costello Music, and their forthcoming
Glasgow Barrowlands tour dates sold out in a matter of minutes - faster than any other band in history. Also featured this week are Glasgow art-rock trio F.O Machete who perform What’s The Signal and Scottish electronic duo, Boards of Canada, aka brothers Michael and Marcus Eoin Sandison with the track Dayvan Cowboy."

UPDATE: We have confirmation from Hexagon Sun that is is NOT a performance. Nothing more is being said, however.
