As L.S said most web browsers do not support WMV files, however services like https://vid.me/ allow for you to upload WMV files for free and using their embed code you may be able to resolve this issue.

Hope this helps!

I think this may be because nearly every browser does not support WMV as a type of file. Aside from IE, this type of format is unlikely to be compatible with most browsers.

Find an online file converter which the file format to WMV to Mp4 or something else.

This might help:
