This video is H.264 in MP4, it should play on all browsers that run Discourse. Given it runs here and not on your instance, I suspect there is something misconfigured there.

Do you run any extra reverse proxy on top of Discourse? I’ve seen some headers on this instance that don’t exist on standard installs, so I’m curious on what was done there.
