Some videos will play and some not... ???

I have started to play the videos that I shoot on my S5 on my smart TV, but find some play and some give a report "file type not supported". Not really sure why this is...
I start to play the videos on my phone then hit to connect to the TV via Bluetooth. They are all taken with my S5.

Any ideas?

Did you try a different video app to open the file, such as vlc?

• I am not an expert but I guess that those who are will need more details. The S5 video camera can take movies in various formats; have you taken vidoes in different formats?. Do you know what formats work on your smart tv and what do not? What is the make and model of your smart tv?

That is what I was thinking but I have no idea of how to check the format or how to change it.

I don't see any way to change the video format. I just reset all camera settings and see if that makes any difference.

On my S5 in the camera app I press the cog and under Video Size I see 4 options; UHD, FULL HD, HD, VGA
