Why can't I watch any videos?

[Android Central Question]

My S6 Edge won't play any sort of videos. Both videos on apps such as tumblr, instagram, youtube etc, or videos i download or record myself. Games and images work so it shouldn't be a display problem but I can't seem to understand.

In lots of detail, describe what does and does not happen when you try to play the videos.
If you are getting an error message, what is the exact wording?

Welcome to Android Central! Does the same thing happen in Safe Mode? You'll only be able to test preinstalled apps like YouTube, but this can still be a helpful troubleshooting step. https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...-on-my-galaxy-s6-or-s6-edge%2F&token=PuwWLhJ1
