Thanks for the quick response.
I am the outsource!
What I should have stated clearly is what get is a copy. I do not get the originals of anything, that is evidence that's been sealed, logged, what have you.
An example would be I receive a tape from an old convenience store, I play it on a regular VCR and the motion is fast and jerky. Is there anyway to get a clearer picture? Another might be from a multiplexed tape and you can barley see anything but you get a sense of different views, kinda. I know my description sucks.
As long as there is a master and I can testify to the lineage of what I give out they can get it admitted into the court as evidence. I do this with audio all the time.
Thanks again
