I don't remember seeing this sort of cyclic venting on the other F9 launches (which this WDR / hot fire is supposed to simulate) but I might be wrong.
Camera view adjusted, zoomed in, centerred. Now adjusting gain and white balance.
ugordon: Do you say that because the lower third is slightly darker than the remainder of the rocket?
BTW, the camera seems to be capturing a 16:9 aspect ratio, but it's squished to 4:3 for the webcast.
