there's an annoying and somewhat disturbing problem that i notice over the past few days

normally when watching WEBM vids on E621, i resize to the "Sample (480p)" resolution

i need this resolution so that i can play the animation normally without it lagging and sticking

however these past few days, many of the WEBM videos i check seem to lack this resize option

now i see only "Original" and "Fit (Horizontal)" and "Fit (Verical)" but no more "Sample (480p)

does anyone know why this could be happening?

The site has simply not generated the sample version yet.

You'd just have to wait an unspecified amount of time until they do or just view the video from whatever source they had come from (which can be faster in some cases).
