I clicked on a video, hit play. The download counter went from 0 to 80 something percent (I wasn't watching it all that closely) then went away as if it had completely downloaded. It would not play. I backed out then came back in. I hit play again and it shows "Waiting for metadata" but at the bottom of the page it says, "Downloaded to: [file]" and I checked the file and it plays fine in VLC Media Player, so it did download the file. Here's a screen shot:

It's not an H264 MP4, so our in-app player doesn't support it. https://www.screencast.com/t/p2rIeElBe06W Closing in favor of https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-desktop/issues/635 / https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-desktop/issues/1003
