Yes, it does sound like a failing hard drive. Be sure to keep your backups up to date, at least daily if not more often. You can download and run Etrecheck for more information on the hard drive. It is a diagnostic tool that's very useful to us in finding problems. Also it will give us further specs on your Mac. After it runs post the log file here. It will contain no personal information. Allowing full drive access will improve the quality of the report.

MP4 files should play through Quicktime. You might also try with VLC.

If the videos aren't playing smoothly it might also indicate a hard drive issue.
Thanks for the reply! I guess its an hard drive issue. Because my mac is getting slower and slower while doing any kind of process...
