I could not usefully view the video, shown as just 2 seconds even re-trying the download.

This is a know bug in plasma6 using X11, upstream now switch and support by default Wayland.

If you install plasma-workspace-wayland and login into plasma wayland session all graphical bugs will disappear.

For mga10 we will probably do the same namely switching to wayland by default.

Please try that, Pierre - after confirming that you were using X11 which up to now has been the default for Plasma.

Sorry; but with the 1MB attachment limit, it took me 6-7 tries to limit what I captured...

Switched to Wayland a couple days ago and this issue is fixed.  I've had some one-time issues, so I'm watching; otherwise, better...
