Works in Edge Version 84.0.522.40
Running ffprobe on the file gives
Stream #0:0(und): Video: h264 (High 4:2:2) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuvj422p(pc), 320x240, 1133 kb/s, 25 fps, 25 tbr, 12800 tbn, 50 tbc (default)
I suspect that profile + subsampling are not going to play nice with certain platform decoders. Windows decoders don't have great support for this, though I'm a little surprised it doesn't work when using ffmpeg on Linux. Chromium derived browsers ship ffmpeg on all platforms, so are not limited by what decoders the OS exposes. Sadly we are due to patent concerns.

Encoding this video with 4:2:0 makes it playable. 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 don't work.
