The new FR5 clip still hides the adapter we ordered

A marked still helped one of our supplier arguments. Show the hidden area and ask for an overlapping view of the same sequence, not another unrelated close-up.
24pointsI've sent a marked still and asked them to show the package identity before following the fitted adapter into the sample handling, rather than cut straight to an arm moving.
10pointsInclude the adapter reference from the order. A visible adapter can still be the wrong adapter, as our own package comparison taught us.
6pointsDoes the current clip identify your sample pieces?
24pointsI would not make the recording request longer until they answer which part of it they cannot provide. You have already been waiting a long time.
18pointsCallum, the tray is ours but I cannot identify individual pieces; Nina Chan, I asked that directly too, because repeating the whole request has achieved very little.
21pointsNina Chan has a point. If they say the adapter is unavailable, a better camera angle is not going to fix it.
22pointsAnd Sarah, check the fittings beside it. Our adapter discussion changed when the missing hose bracket finally appeared in the comparison.
11pointsThey have answered: the ordered adapter is waiting for a replacement fastening set, and the video used their workshop adapter; that is the first explanation I have had.
2pointsSo the clip was not the supplied assembly. Have they said when the fastening set is available?
6pointsAt least you can stop trying to recognise something that was never there. Do they intend to send the agreed adapter or offer the workshop one?
7pointsThey say the agreed adapter will be supplied and the replacement fastenings are available, but I have asked for the demonstration only after that complete assembly is ready.
8pointsThat keeps the original scope clear. No need to accept their workshop tool simply because it is the one already in a film.
13pointsIs your sample set marked, Sarah? You can settle that while they finish their assembly.
6pointsYes, the sample pieces have distinct IDs from our original dispatch list, and I sent photographs showing them; they were just not legible in the footage.
10pointsThen ask them to keep those identities readable. You do not need a new sample system for a camera problem.
22pointsHas the promised assembly actually been completed now?
7pointsThey sent the new recording: package identity, fitted agreed adapter and marked samples all traceable through the sequence, with an overlapping side view for the hidden area; one placement still gets a hand nudge after release.
22pointsIs that nudge part of the offered process, or correcting a failed placement? Ask before treating the demonstration as complete.
9pointsThey acknowledge it corrects a placement and have referred that sample to their application person; the recording finally answers identity, but I have not accepted the handling result.
