Any audio, video and similar evidence are admissible in any judicial
proceedings.
Sec. 1, Rule 11 of Rules on Electronic Evidence provides:
Section 1. Audio, video, and similar evidence. Audio,
photographic and video evidence of events, acts or transactions shall
be admissible provided is shall be shown, presented or displayed to
the court and shall be identified, explained or authenticated by the
person who made the recording or by some other person competent to
testify on the accuracy thereof.
The rules shall apply to all civil actions and proceedings, as well as quasijudicial and administrative cases.
Though alleged videos are yet to be authenticated by proper authority.
There are things that are to be considered first in obtaining a video as
evidence in a court.
Excerpted from an article in the web:
Rules of Evidence
1.)
Preservation the duty to properly keep and maintain
memory cards and other temporary storage devices on which images
are recorded
2.) Authenticity that the digitally recorded evidence is a true and
accurate reflection of what the proponent of the evidence claims it to be
3.) Policy have a formulized agency policy for evidence collection and
preservation which includes digital and electronic evidence (video
captures, e-mails, computer data)
4.) Admissibility showing that the purported evidence is relevant to
the ultimate fact to be proved and the extent to which it weighs on the

probability of that fact. Generally if the evidence passes the first three
steps its admissibility will be assured.

And another article from the web:

Using video for documentation and evidence
In certain way, videos can be used in every stage of the criminal justice
process. However, they are limited by what their content actually proves.
According to the article, videos can be as significant to the bigger puzzle in
evidence collection needed to prove a crime.
There are number of distinctions regarding type of evidence:

Crime-based Evidence involves information that proves the

commission of a crime

Linkage Evidence involve information that proves who committed the

crime

Lead Evidence suggests a crime may have been committed

Corroborative evidence backs up other types of evidence

Though this pertains to violation of human rights across the globe.
