PlayReady DRM Prevents Video Playback on Some Websites

Hi,

When I use Edge v150 or above on Windows 10, if the DRM is PlayReady, it causes videos on certain websites to be unplayable.

I had no issues at all with v149 (stable version), but as soon as I updated to v150 (beta version), problems immediately appeared.

To reproduce: Go to edge://flags/#edge-playready-drm-win10, explicitly enable the setting, then play a video on the websites listed below.

If that option is disabled, reverting DRM to Widevine, playback will be normal.

Confirmed websites are as follows:

Hopefully, an Edge developer sees this and can help resolve this issue.

Thank you.
