Steps to solve  offline videos not playing on your Android phone:

  • Attempt to download the video once more.-If the downloading procedure was interrupted in the middle, you can run into this problem. The simplest solution to fix videos that aren't playing in the Android gallery is to redownload them.
  • Restart your mobile device.-All you have to do is long-press the Power button and select the 'Restart' option from the Power options that appear. Wait for your phone to restart and then start watching the video.
  • Download a Media Player that is Compatible-It's likely that the video format you have won't be supported by your Android's native media player. You can remedy this by installing a third-party video player such as VLC or MX Video Player.
  • Clear the Media Player's Cache-Simply navigate to Settings > Apps > VLC Media Player > Storage and tap the 'Clear Cache' option to fix the problem. You may also clear the app data from here to improve the app's performance.
  • Video can be transferred to the phone's internal storage.-Simply open the File Manager, navigate to the SD card, and choose the videos you want to transfer. After that, copy them from the SD card and paste them into the internal memory of your phone.
