What are these extremely large veins from? (lemmy.world)

I captured these from a video. It’s a person that I know did not have these on earlier videos. What’s this from?

I’m not spending a ton of time thinking of this but this is a video… and I thought of this compression piece. Would the veins have remained in the same place on the arm throughout a five minute video?

Depending on the corruption/compression, or some combination thereof, yes. Usually it's supposed to correct that issue with a key frame every few seconds, but if the source data were corrupted (or poorly generated/enhanced) it could happen.

Based on your other picture's aspect ratio, it looks like you zoom enhanced a highly compressed frame. Image enhancement doesn't work like it does in the movies.
