- SD card size matters a lot. Some SD cards (of course fake cards) shows different size than its actual capacity. When a video file of bigger size (than card’s capacity) is moved to the card, the card cannot hold the file completely. So, the video file fails to transfer fully onto the card, thus you cannot play it.
- Sometimes SD card gets corrupt due to recurrent deletion and restore of data either by computer or digital gadgets like camera, mobile etc. Due to frequent and fast delete-restore rate, an open and close tag will accumulate on SD card. So, try removing this open-end tag on SD card by deleting all data and then defrag the card in the computer.
- Last but not least, even creation of bad sectors or bad blocks on SD card could be the major cause behind unplayable videos. Bad spots on affected SD card could make saved videos unplayable. So, make a habit of regularly formatting the card. Formatting resolves most of SD card issues.
