Works fine in Chrome and Edge for me.
What browser are you using, or maybe you have some plugin installed that blocked it?

I am using the latest Safari and OSX versions.

The splash screen opens and displays, with the play button visible . . . . but when I press the play button . . the splash screen flashes once and the video freezes. Ad Blocker is disabled.

I think I figured it out.
I am not a subscriber to Facebook. I think that is the problem.
Oh well . . . .

Works great for me. On Chrome, running AdBlock.

Seems simple enough. Anything different about an oil change on a 915?

I tried InPrivate browsing in Chrome and the video plays fine, so you do not need to be part of Facebook since InPrivate I am not logged in.
So I think it's probably a problem with Safari on OSX. Maybe try a different browser?

Thanks Phil.

Tried Firefox, same thing . . . froze immediately after a brief start.

Any way it could be posted in YouTube format? I am sure I could play it then.

Very strange.
I posted the question to them to see if they could post it to YouTube. Will let you know if they do.
