bug description

I keep finding random videos which, no matter how I share/send/save links, simply refuse to be recognized as having content, but when followed via browser play just fine. Apologies if this has already been reported, but I am new to this type of service and learning as I go.

One such example is the following (all to same vid):

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=598737626058634
https://fb.watch/wmNYZ-F2nD/

Note:
I WAS able to get a working link by jumping through hoops.

Fix:
Track video to original post.
Click "..." at upper right hand corner of post.
Click "Embed"
Click "Advanced Settings" hyperlink
Copy the link labeled under "URL of video"

Result:
