Putting this here, for reference as the payload of the JSON feed link for Perseverence raws (see source in other thread here)

So, as I understand it - Perseverance has the ability compress frames into .MP4 files? And the landing videos posted by NASA on youtube were uploads of those MP4 files? And the rover will later send all of the full resolution frames (1000s of them) of the landing?
My question is: are those MP4 files available anywhere to download? Has NASA made them available? Because Youtube compresses videos a lot, and the original files would have a lot more detail. Thanks! |

My question is: are those MP4 files available anywhere to download? Has NASA made them available? Great question. JPL ws able to get video footage very quickly and there are still a lot of individual frames to be published so these must have been videos created by the cameras and uplinked on Sol 1. Where are the raw video files do you suppose? Can we get our hands on them? |
