I was crawling this page, and came to find to a couple of videos that were drastically different on terms of views, i know that impressiones and views are different, i can see impressiones and the crawler sees views (apparently) being on the lower side but the number given to this output on viewcount for post 29 and 40.

Pic 1 - 1.9k impressions / cralwer gives 19k https://www.facebook.com/Flora.Leal.Lerdo/videos/1197372321975444/

Pic 2 - 4.4k impressions / cralwer gives 11k https://www.facebook.com/Flora.Leal.Lerdo/videos/646828898200291/

Hi!

Internally at Facebook, it is two different counters: for video in the page feed and for video by direct URL. Please re-run with direct URLs to get additional counters: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/LJh4woJICaD4YTtlD

See video_view_count_renderer

1{
2      "associated_video": {
3        "is_live_streaming": false,
4        "is_profile_video": false,
5        "id": "1197372321975444"
6      },
7      "video_view_count": 21786,
8      "video_view_count_reduced": "21K",
9      "total_video_posts": 48,
10      "video_post_view_count": 656,
11      "should_show_play_count": true,
12      "play_count_reduced": "1.9K",
13      "play_count": 1947,
14}

I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.
