The court room internet has been notoriously bad throughout the trial. All of the streamers were complaining about it constantly during their broadcasts and even the judge at one point was joking with the lawyers and the jury about how bad the internet was in the court house during one of the technical difficulties they had watching video evidence.
I think what you are seeing in that frame is just the result of packet loss during the broadcasts feeds and not a "green screen" effect that you are suggesting.
Hmm, dunno man.....something about this whole thing smells like shit. They cut that scene out in some videos.
I appreciate the critical eye you are using but my experience tells me that this is a file compression or packet loss issue causing missing data. Whatever format this was captured in is just filling in the data gaps as best it can giving you that visual effect.
I've never seen video compression or packet loss do that. That's just bizarre.
packet loss could absolutely act in this manner if using h264 or h265 compression. each successive frame between reference frames contains only the information of what has changed from a previous frame, and is not a complete picture.
if you're missing a packet that updated that part of the frame it could look just as it did here.
I'm not saying that it wasn't caused by some other phenomena, just pointing out that this is also A viable answer.
I've seen h264 video corruption many times and it's very obvious when it happens. The spot tends to drift slightly and there is fuzziness around it. I'm not saying it's not video corruption--I don't know--but if it is, it differs from the kind of corruption that I've ever seen.
It is unusual.
But suppose it is green screen, then what are we seeing. Is he stepping over the backing, or behind, or even on top of it?
occams razor on this one makes me lean towards some type of data error.
