Jupiter. What is it?

Testing the near completed Dob drive last night, the sky was clear but the atmosphere wasn't the best, I managed to get 3 recordings out of 6 of Jupiter. The time, as near as I am able to estimate was 6.45 pm and Jupiter nearly over-head. The bump or whatever you wish to call it on the North Eastern limb - 2.o'clock - appears on two and possibly three of the AVI recordings and most prominant on the third, attached. The three in question were recorded about 30 seconds apart and each 140 frames stacked .
The question: Is this an alusion or something real?
