Firefox Blocking Video Playback
I am working in an online class and we are asked to record videos in an online platform for school. When I go to hit the play button on anyone's video I get an error message. This does not happen in other browsers, but I want to keep using Firefox. Is there a privacy or cookie setting that could be causing this to happen?

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?
If you have Windows 10 N or KN then you may not have the Media Feature Pack installed.

Make sure you are not blocking content.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

I cannot give you a public link - this is my school's website. The domain is D2L but I cannot get you to the exact page where I am having trouble. These videos are recorded on this site and uploaded there - I have deleted cookies and cleared my cache but nothing has worked so far including safe mode.
This could be a problem with the website, or the clip. Inform the webmaster.
