High Criteria Inc. Announces the Immediate Availability of the Liberty Court Recorder, Version 8.2

High Criteria Inc, a world leader in computer audio / video recording systems, today announced the immediate availability of the newest version of the Liberty Court Recording system for recording courtroom and other legal proceedings. The Liberty Court Recorder is a digital recording application that runs on a PC or laptop and records multiple audio channels directly to the computer hard-drive.

The Liberty System offers an economical, state-of-the-art alternative for those wanting to move away from tape systems such as the Sony BM 246 and incorporate the benefits of a digital audio / video recording system into the courtroom.

Version 8.2 of Liberty Recorder includes the following new features:

The Recorder’s Remote Conferencing facility has been significantly enhanced with the ability now to manage conferences with large numbers of remote parties connected to Liberty Court Recorder over the Internet. The audio and the video associated with these remote parties are saved into individual channels for audio / video playback during transcription. All of the audio and video media is encrypted during transmission using standards dictated by the U.S. Institute of Standards and Technology NIST Special Publication 800-131A.

Liberty Court Recorder can now directly capture audio and video from Network Device Interface (NDI) enabled sources such as Skype and some other audio / video devices that support NDI.

The Video Window facility has been enhanced in several ways. All of the recorded video streams may now be shown in a single “General” Video Window. This General Window may be resized and stretched both laterally and horizontally, according to the user’s purpose. The General Video Window can be resized to create a column of video playback streams that can be placed on one side or the other of the monitor, or the General Video Window can be resized to create a row of video playback streams that may be positioned at the top or the bottom of the monitor. In addition to the General Video display Window, the user can click on any individual video playback stream and isolate any of the streams into an individual display Window that can be resized according to the user’s needs.
