When I download it I can play it in VLC, and according to MediaInfo HEVC encoding.
Is HEVC support not included by default? Chrome should support it, and Firefox shouldn’t support it at all according to the compatibility charts.
Maybe there’s some site bullshittery going on and the site is giving out different versions of the file to different people based on region or something. The file it gives me is 2,661,216 bytes. Is that what you get?
Edit: Works in Edge, although feel like I now have to go wash my hands after firing that up.
Ok I take it back. It plays in Firefox on Android, but not on Windows. Also on Android, it didn’t play at first, I had to refresh. I don’t know what’s going on lol.
I kinda doubt catbox.moe is doing any kind of smart distribution. It’s a pretty simple file hosting site.
Found it. My Chrome has “Hardware-accelerated video decode” disabled. Apparently there’s no software fall back there, so it just claims no knowledge of them.
Kind of sucks that Firefox can’t play them, something to do with licensing.
What OS are you on? The video plays fine for me in Firefox on both Windows and Android.
Also I think the codec is more likely to blame than the hosting provider.
Windows 10.
