Can't play videos from Google Drive

[Zlopez]

Today I tried to replay recording from one meeting and the link was redirecting me to google drive. When I tried to play it, it either didn't do anything or the player crashed with: "An error occurred. Please try again later." I thought that this could be blocked by brave shield, so I temporary disabled it for the page but without success.

After that I tried to play the video with Firefox in Flatpak and it was working without issue.

Here is the console output from the Brave:
drive.google.com-1617887954078.log

Unfortunately I can't give you access to the video itself, but I can provide any additional info if needed.

@Zlopez sorry for the late response. Can you try it on a non flatpak'd Brave, i.e. from a Deb or RPM?

@Zlopez Also Google Drive won't play videos when you block 3rd party cookies

Closing because it's not a flatpak issue:

• Google Drive does not play mp4 video brave/brave-browser#1122
• Can't play videos on Google Drive if Brave Shields are enabled brave/brave-browser#9986
