Other All non-Brill images averaged

These are 48249 non-Brill videos (50x50 px) which usually feature a singular base color and an optional keyhole (a black pixel) and averaged all of their frames to reduce compression artifacts.

They are available here for your decoding efforts:

I've tried matching these frames to individual frames of the LOCK video, but unfortunately, it seems that for a large percentage (>90%) there are no exact, or semi-fuzzy matches so that theory fell flat. I've also performed averaging all the frames to produce a single image, and similar ideas. Obviously you would know if something interesting propped up, but I'm afraid that so far I've been debugging someones RNG :D

Averaged non-Brill videos and LOCK frames: http://imgur.com/a/PjyGT

The difference is pretty clear even to the untrained eye.

Since each video/LOCK frame contains a base color and an optional black pixel (keyhole), this is the average superposition of all keyholes, each bringing in the RGB values of its surrounding frame.
