This looks like it is caused by bug 49896.

It looks better today than in that screenshot, but still a bit funny:

…But I am 99% sure it will be fixed completely by T201081 (which will swap from using a <video> with a fake thumbnail to using <audio>). We should test this after that is deployed.

Note that it will display using the HTML5 <audio> player in your browser, rather than actual TMH interface. I think attempting to load TMH here is unnecessary, since you can't interact with the element to play it, anyway.

matmarex edited projects, added VisualEditor; removed VisualEditor (Current work).

Looks perfect now.
