Go to the Site Settings screen.
Change Privacy to Private.

Add a Cover block.
Upload a video from the local device or record one.
Once the upload finishes, observe that the video doesn't load or play.
Expected behavior
All videos inserted on the Cover block should be displayed.

NOTE: In the private site/video case and concerning the video not being displayed in the first attempts to preview the post, it's likely that it's produced due to the video not being processed at the time the preview loads.
