Beav. Cnty. Pa. 4017.1
The trial judge may refuse permission to use a videotape deposition at trial if either the audio or video portions of the tape are of poor quality. Prior to offering a videotape deposition of a witness at trial, counsel for the proponent of the deposition shall file a certification that he or she has reviewed the videotape and that both the audio and the video portions thereof are of good quality. Failure to comply with this rule may result in the refusal of permission to use the videotape at the time of trial.
Material to which objection has been sustained shall be excluded at trial by ''fast forward'' by the video machine operator so as to eliminate both the image and the sound of the objectionable material. A copy of the stenographic transcript of the deposition shall be delivered to the court stenographer with redacted portions, if any, clearly marked, before the close of the parties' case in which the deposition was utilized.
