    Do your videos play in QuickTime Playerwhen you reveal one of them in the Finder with "File > Reveal > Original"? Try to open the revealed movie in QuickTime and see if it plays.

    Check the format of the movie. You can see it in the Inspector in QuickTime Player from the "WIndow" menu: Window > Show Inspector.

     

    iPhoto does not support all movie formats and codecs that QuickTime player can play, and not all frame rates.

    See: Using AVCHD video with iPhoto '11

     

    If the movie does not play in QuickTime Player either, install QuickTime 7 for more codecs.
