I appreciate you trying to help me here, but this video confirms only that they are using a wide angle lens which creates the appearance of curvature if the horizon line is on the edge of the frame. As a film-maker I know this very well. If the horizon line is in the centre of the frame, only then can you accurately see if there is curvature. But this video, like ALL space videos does not show the horizon line in the middle of the frame.
Uh huh, sure. I apologize I just can't muster enthusiasm to discuss this topic anymore. The earth is a globe shaped thing, all data supports that. I have yet to see a single convincing argument to the contrary that is grounded in reality.
A wide angled lens when capturing the spherical earth would also show curvature. There is no image of the earth with out curvature, weather baloon images of the planet exhibit a shape that is consistent with a sphere the size of our planet and can be modeled. The whole thing is just a snooze fest for me.
All data supported Einstein's theory that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, until quantum physics proved otherwise. All the best to you my friend :)
Perhaps you could answer some of my question then, and I won't need to bring it up again?

Looks pretty round to me

Not sure what you mean by that? 14mm lenses create distortion at the edges.
