"The Video Cloud video is not playable"


getting this error with a lot of embedded videos, eg the ones on this page: https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ne...sition/112479/

Haven't been able to find an explanation - does anybody know what I need to play these?

I get a "player error" with Firefox 60.2 on Slackware 14.2 and with Firefox 62.0 in a VM of Windows 7, even after "temporarily allowing" all scripts. They do play in Internet Explorer in that same VM. (The ads did not motivate me to buy from Hudson's Bay.)

The player seems to be some embedded player at the web site.

Not that it is likely to have much of a bearing of this, what distro/version are you using and what version of Firefox?
