In Massachusetts, the admissibility of video evidence in a divorce case depends on several factors:

In Massachusetts, if your wife has stated she doesn't want custody of the children, it could potentially strengthen your case for obtaining custody. Family courts prioritize the best interests of the children, and if one parent expresses a lack of interest, it may influence custody decisions. Consulting a local attorney can provide further guidance specific to your situation.
