When you show the underside of the decking (at 4:34), your blocking for the posts looks different than in video 1. That one had an EXTRA two 2x10 while this only has ONE extra and then a 2" board laying flat. Why is that? Only for the post with electrical cord? Or can all non-corner posts have the same blocking?
Typically all posts require a double layer of 2x lumber for post blocking. If for instance your corners catch the joists then it may save you, but I always recommend a double 2x6 on it's face or you can 3 ply your joist material, and last option, off cuts of 6x6 posts work great. Sorry I missed your comment and took so long to reply.
