This case is obviously this one now released with the second batch as
I wonder how it's redacted now though it's been already published by Corbell unredacted.

Interesting how the clouds are flowing through the frame constantly from right to left, until right when the "UFO" zips out of frame, when they slow right down. Almost as if the camera is following the UFO, then stops doing that so the UFO exits the right of the screen.
This is all consistent with the object flying along at a constant rate of speed (or a constant apparent speed produced by a moving camera and parallax for an essentially stationary object like a balloon). There is no observable evidence of acceleration in either case, instantaneous or otherwise!
Yet somebody in DoD is releasing this as an object flying in an anomalous fashion. This raises some ominous and unavoidable questions about the competence of some number of folks at DoD -- hopefully the number is small, and limited to either folks who Want To Believe or who Want To Mollify Congressional Members Who Want To Believe.

The segment in question
The video quality is quite a bit better than Corbell releases, you can actually see the interlacing artifacts, so it's much closer to the original, and you can see:

Which is also what the Sitrec analysis shows.

Do you think that this 'official' version has not been filmed off a monitor?
I think it's the original footage, just reencoded, so not filmed off a monitor. The various contrast issues are problems with the original IR camera.
It (visually) traverses hald the most zoomed-in screen in 6 frames, so 12 frames for, let's call it an "1a" screen . leaving at 8562
30 frames later, without the view moving much, the view widens to 2a
70 frames after that it zooms out another 2a to 4a, over those 70 frames it pans maybe 1.5 of the 2a screen, or 3 1a screens
at 8841, we widen to 8a
at 8907, we go to what looks like 6x that, so 48a
8907-8562 = 345 frames, so it would have traversed 345/12, or about 28 1a screens, which is more than half of the wide 48a screen, so it would seems like it would be off screen.
Some perhaps more interesting few seconds, are from frames 5784 (3:11.10) to 7352 (4:05.07), nearly a minute of video missing from Corbell's leak, in which the object appears to turn around, in much the same way as the windmill object does. The OSD here would, I strongly suspect, show that it matches the camera platform (the drone) turning around, and hence showing that the motion was parallax. I wonder if Corbell had this segment, and why it was not included in the release.

Unless I am mistaken, this was not collected because it was flying in an anomalous fashion, but because someone sent it to the collection office. They wouldn't analyze, they would just file it. Someone else will analyze, maybe, if they consider it worthwhile.
For example, consider the effort to collect phone calls. They just file every one that hits some keywords. Only later, if someone deems it interesting, does anyone go in and look.
So my feeling is that the people in question were doing exactly what they were hired to do, file it.
That appear to only happen in that intial clip, the full video at the end has the missing frame
Frame 635 (same as 634)
Frame 8553, different from. 8552, where 8552 = 634 and 635
This implication is that you shouldn't use the "original clip excerpt", as it loses data.
There are also a few pixel differences. Given the missing frames in the excerpt, then the "full original clip" is likely the closest to the actual original.

It has that specific frame, which is good to know, but there are still duplicate frames in the full video at the end as well. 8559=8560, 8525=8526. I'm wondering if this means the video still suffers from some frame rate conversion issues, or something else and whether that might've created other artifacts in the frames that aren't duplicates as well.

Isn't this also what you expect when the lock is lost, the background changes direction.
The lock was already lost (the object is not boxed). We are seeing a transition from RPOINT (attempting to hold a lost lock) to RATE-G (manual tracking). This appears to be something the operator did as the object was about to drift off-screen. They likely did not anticipate the parallax component, so they lost it.
@AverageChris has been researching this, and posted in the thread. I believe he posted on X about talking to an MQ-9 operator. Chris?
That reminds me of something I've been meaning to ask:
Why exactly does Corbell do this "Recording-a-UAP-video-like-a-kid-from-the-early-2000s-taking-a-physical-picture-of-a-notable-moment-in-the-video-game-they-are-playing-on-the-CRT-TV" thing?
Has this been explained and I just missed it?

That's how the "leaks" are giving to him. Presumably, the person providing the leak is concerned that if they actually downloaded the file from a government server, that might be traceable. And possibly illegal? So, they make a recording of whatever mysterious video they've seen with their likely personal phone and "smuggle" the file out that way.
Whether downloading is possible, traceable or illegal, I don't know. Seems like with the size of the federal government and all it's inner workings, I wouldn't be surprised if someone could download terabytes of stuff and nobody noticed, but I guess someone with actual government experience would have to weigh in.
There is also the possibility that the recorded screen trope gives the leaks a found footage vibe. Some secret that was recorded clandestinely in a secret government vault or SCIF by a courageous patriot fighting to get the truth out. Risking his career and life to provide Corbell with the evidence the public needs to see, the only way he can.
Personally, I think it's a combination of the 2. The leakers are recorded screens to avoid being found out, but the furtive nature of these screen recordings makes them more compelling as real secrets which also happens to be more entertaining.
