My observation at 25% speed (available to IAABO members). 10 second mark.
Immediately after catch with both feet on floor, right foot lifts slightly (or maybe it doesn't lift, not 100% sure) and moves slightly to the right and back, making the left foot the pivot foot.
Player's body blocks our view to see the exact release point of the dribble relative to the lifting of the left pivot foot (I could guess, but I'd prefer not to guess here).
The last we clearly see the ball in the hand of Red #22 is after he sweeps the ball across to the right of his body, and then back to his left and down to start the dribble (at which point his body fully blocks our view of the ball), which is the same exact time that the official's hand partially blocks our clear view of the left foot (which I believe is the pivot foot).
I'm not sure on a few different key points of this play (pivot foot identification, pivot foot lifting, exact release point of dribble), so since I'm not sure, I'm not calling the travel violation.
I may have screwed up the identification of the pivot foot, and the release of the dribble, but I'm not calling something that I'm so unsure about, even at 25% speed on a few replays.
Nice video.
Note: If one identifies the right foot as the pivot foot, then I agree with Raymond and bob jenkins that the ball was released to start the the dribble before the (right) pivot foot was lifted, thus no travel.
