Engine Issues not conclusive on video?

It is a shame that full ground TO video WITH AUDIO is not available. Eye witnesses are notoriously unreliable but the reports of hearing a loud bang, also repeated by some of the survivors are intriguing. Also, the ground video, taken from Terminal 4, presumably only see the near/Port side of the aircarft on 36L, although this is not clear also. I am just wondering outloud if, after all the earlier speculation of possible failure of #1, that it might actually have been a problem with #2? Such failure, which may not necessarily have been accompanied by fire, but probably would have been accompanied by a loud bang, would have been out of the visual/audio capability of the video?
