Did Covid Change Your Lifestyle?

What are the rules governing what can and can't be shown on TV with regards to courtroom trials? And why is this so? My points in question:
1) Why don't they allow cameras (still or moving) or at least sound recorders to relay what's happening? What harm can it do, at the moment the press just write it down and print it word for word anyway.
2) Defendants seem to be depicted in relatively poor drawings, why do they even bother seeing as it's all from memory anyway?
3) Barristers etc are depicted in that silly pseudo 3D thing, what's the problem with at least taking pictures of them?
4) If it must be daft psuedo 3D, why not use archive pictures of the defendants and show them at the same time?
It all seems a bit "Gerry Adams in the 80's" to me......
