Similar case, but in my case a black rectangle. SM 2.12.1, XP SP3,

Not unique to the posted link, and impossible to diagnose (so far).
Notably Vimeo. Vids on other sites play fine (eg, Youtube). :/
I've had exactly this trouble with videos on mlb.com, but disabling AdBlock
Plus and
reloading the page solves it. Sort of -- I have to view their ads.
Weirdly, mlb videos played for me WITHOUT my disabling adblock!
On hulu.com, I get an apology (!) that they can't show me their ads, but the
timer
counts down to zero and the content plays anyway. I ignore the instruction to
enable
ads, no harm done.
Went to hulu, same result as yours, all other settings as-was.
On some sites, accepting cookies helps. They apparently store a flag saying
I've seen
their ad, so blocking the cookie makes it look as if they still need to serve
the ad,
and until I pretend I've seen it by accepting the cookie, they won't serve the
content.
I normally have cookies set to "Allow cookies for the originating website only" and
"Accept for current session only". So as an experiment I opened cookies wide and
disabled adblock...and OP's link STILL gives me the black rectangle, and waiting
doesn't help. (Gave it 5 minutes; if it wants longer, that's just too bad.)
