Comment:

 In [changeset:"40813"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="40813"
 Media: Remove core embedding support for WMV and WMA files since
 MediaElement.js has discontinued supporting them.

 Plugins may continue to add embedding support for these file formats by
 re-adding them via the `wp_video_extensions` and `wp_audio_extensions`
 filters while also implementing fallback rendering routines via the
 `wp_video_shortcode_override` and `wp_audio_shortcode_override` filters.

 See #39994, #39995.
 Fixes #40819.
 }}}
