I've only been following this case casually, so I might be wrong, but didn't the prosecution spend a ton of time arguing about image resizing algorithms / digital zoom and how that makes some of the video evidence questionable? You would think they'd be savvy to this compression as a result, no?

That was a totally separate issue, that was about additional enhancement of the video.

This is about the original video being shared as low quality to the defence but then shown in high quality to the court. So the defence did not get to review that evidence.
