Q: Color tagged some video files in Finder but now they are no longer playable in Quicktime, VLC, Quick look, etc...

I was tagging some video files last night so that I would have them picked out when I worked editing them together today. But today, I went back to oepn them up and only the videos that I tagged are no longer playable. The size of each video is the same, but iMovie refuses to import them, Quicktime says its incompatible, and VLC won't play them at all. Other video files from the same GoPro are working completely....

 

Any reason why color tagging these files might warp these video files? Anyway to revert them back to their working state?

 

For reference: I'm running Mavericks on a Macbook Air (2012) and the video files are from a GoPro Black!

 

Thanks.

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
