Size of the file is 4,7 Mb. I'm trying view the file in Dropbox user home page. I'm open file by double click. Firefox 124.0.2. In the other clouds I watched the file similarly.
After an error message the loading indicator remains active and the quality indicator changes value every 2 seconds. 720/480/720/480/...
