I have just tried to play some high speed video on my PC.  Its an mp4 file and has alwayd played perfectly over the last 12 months. I have not changed browser which is Google.

 

Now when I go to the file it says "This file cant't be previewed"  with the download button.  I dont want to download, I simply want to review the high speed video on line.

 

What do I need to do?
