Windows Media Player won't play some videos

[MEESTERSoupCan]

bug description Certain videos I download from YouTube don't allow seeking, and instead shows something like a streaming icon where the full video length should be. Putting the video into an editor only imports a blank audio file, and no video.

reproduction steps steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. go to youtube
2. go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rf3vgTpFExU
3. download the video
4. attempt to view in player or in editing software

additional context Audio downloads just fine, it doesn't like videos though. I just found that certain videos do this, while others do not. This one specifically has the issue.
