I clicked the link in your post.  After dismissing a few annoying popups, & as you can see below, Firefox blocking some as well, I finally got to the point where I could press the play button in the video viewer.  Curiously, for some reason, that didn't actually make the video play in the web page.  No matter.  I was going to stop it after a couple of seconds anyway.  After I did hit play, this is what I saw:

I downloaded the first variant listed on that VDH menu.  Here's what the download looked like part way through, as reported by the VDH blue dot status menu:

The download completed in about 3 minutes.  The file was about 324M & looked like this:

That 1912x1088 resolution is a mystery I have not figured out.  VDH gives me bogus resolution numbers like this on almost every download I do.  When I played the file in VLC, the VLC video information reported this was in fact 1920x1080.  And I did play the file in VLC.  It looked fine, although those video bit rates are quite low.  I didn't sit & watch it, just sampled it at intervals.  There was audio & video at each of my sample points, about every minute.  I let it play the last few seconds to make sure it was all there & indeed, the credits were there at the end.

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit, Firefox 111.0 64-bit, licensed VDH 7.6.5a3 beta (same as 7.6.6), CoApp 1.6.3, VLC 3.0.18 Vetinari.  Maybe Firefox handles the page better than Edge.  I can only speculate.  Clearly, it worked fine for me.

Yes I see it works better in Firefox. I looked in Edge and Ungoogled chromium and the two server options Vidstream and Mycloud aren't detected.
The third Filemoon option does work and the streamtape option had no file found. Also somehow it downloads in VDH but if I try to run a
m3u8 manifest in ffprobe they return a 404 or a 403 error for vidstream and mycloud.
