“””There is a substantial difference in quality between the “low def” version given the defense and the “hi def” source. Big time difference. I can’t believe the commenters who said they can’t see a difference.”””
I spent far too many hours watching all of the trial. When the prosecution got to their slow motion viewing of the drone video and claiming Rittenhouse was the provoker, I could never see what they were talking about.
I assumed it was my eyesight as the problem.
Wow. This uncompressed video is certainly a lot clearer and now I don’t believe I need to buy a new pair of eyeglasses.
Let me also add.
The HD video also clearly shows Rosenbaum tossing his plastic bag at Rittenhouse in order to distract Rittenhouse. At that point Rittenhouse turns around and points his gun towards Rosenbaum. Rosenbaum does not stop, but continues to pursue (to his peril).
The above sequence of a split second events was not all that clear to me when I saw the fuzzy compressed video played over and over again during the trial.
