Definately a PTU running.

It is not unusual to have one, or two, running on the ground when you want to pressurize the hydraulic systems without starting the engines. On the first clip, you can also hear the electrical hydraulic pumps running.

It is however unusual to have a PTU running in flight, as that would mean that at least one hydraulic system is not powered by an engine driven pump.
