Episode 2
Thursday, 8 January, 2026
Send us a textA blue jay, a busted feeder, and a brand-new camera set the tone, but only briefly. We kick off the new year with updates from the Florida ICAC conference, including firsthand courtroom experience watching frame rate and frame count testimony in action. The episode centers on Frame Counts Galore, an open-source script for extracting and hashing every video frame, calculating true variable frame rates, and producing transparent, courtroom-ready logs and reports.We cover upcoming DFIR conferences, introduce a lightweight AI Provenance Scanner for fast C2PA and metadata checks, and reflect on standout moments from the digital forensics year—especially the impact of open-source tools and honest conversations about the realities of the work. The episode closes with a 2026 wish list focused on stronger education, fair workloads, and customizable forensic reporting that analysts can actually defend in court.Happy New Year to the DFIR community.Notes:Frame Counts Galore-https://github.com/abrignoni/frame-counts-galoreUpcoming Conferences- https://www.iacis.com/ https://www.msab.com/digital-summit-2026/ https://magnetvirtualsummit.com/ https://www.technosecurity.us/https://ofta.cellebrite.com/event/cellebrite-c2c-user-summit-2026/AI Provenance Scanner- https://github.com/abrignoni/AI_Provenance_ScannerBrett Shavers Blogs- https://www.brettshavers.com/UFADE & ALEX- https://github.com/prosch88
