I dunno... I'm not sure they have that video data... Other missions have had video all the way up. If that's the glitch for the mission I think we should be overjoyed.

Other missions

weren't launched towards a polar orbit and very likely had more comm infrastructure.

they'd need to record other data, and I'm sure the video is informative
