Here is the video as recorded on VHS on the ground, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5tmnIFZ_Dk
I first burned a DVD which a mp4 video file is created from this DVD. DVD does not record static and non-video from VHS tape, kind of like a self-editing system. Time duration of actual jump is longer that this video shown.

Here are screen grabs from streaming video while Michael KF6WRW Jumper #2 was in the air.
