randomly corrupted bytes in an uploaded video file are almost always 'noticable', generally in the form or a few frames of a single frame with a few miscolored pixels or a slitch sound beep/click. however it is highly unlikely that such a minor glitch will be bothersom. this is generally the extent in which corrupted packets in video will manifest, but in rare cases it can cause major audio glitches resulting in offsets/desync or loss of audio from that point on or constant blocking/broken pixels throughout the video and even video not playing and crashing the player software. such cases are very uncommon and if you were to experience something like this chances are the transfer would not have succeded anyway as the same cause would likely drop ack's and make it fail.
