Video skips to the end on all players on MacBook Pro

I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro and suddenly am having video playback issues. The data is all there, the video says it's (for example) 14 minutes long, but I press play, and it skips straight to the end. Happens in every possible viewer - Finder, Quicktime, imported into iMovie -- and even happens after converting the file to a different format (from mov to mp4). The file works fine on other computers. Running OS 10.14.6 (18G103)

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.14
