I tried that site from your link. No videos would play until I saw a message at the top of the window to accept cookies. Clicked "accept" or "agree", or whatever the message said. Then the video started to play.
(At least I THINK it asked to accept cookies. I don't read much Italian without my slow translation, but it looked like a typical "You have to agree to accept cookies before you can view media on this site" or something very close to that.)
I hope that will help you.

Thanks Delta, but I don't have any window at the top

Also I just noticed the same issue is present on Firefox

EDIT: I'm closer to finding the issue, seems like some resources can't be opened from my Mac "impossible to open the page"

but when I try on my iPhone it opens correctly

So I guess something is blocking access to those sites

This link for example

Like I said, I could only see still images on that page, until I tried to view the resources on the image (right-click, and choose "Inspect Element"). The message appeared after I did that a couple of times on different images on that site.
I clicked the button, something like "accept", but in Italian - and the videos worked after that.

Modifying my hosts file I was able to access that link

But still I can't play videos
[doublepost=1485053345][/doublepost]Found the culprit, it was a modified hosts file I was using

Now everything's ok

Yes, videos didn't play for me until I could click on the button in the message (through the Inspect Element)
Did you try that? I recall the message didn't appear until I did the Inspect Elements a couple times...

If not, maybe your host file is messed up now. I don't know what to tell you about that...
