Playing these off hard drive connected directly to the pi - power supply is more than adequate 5V 2A
Thanks

Power supply does sound good and ruling out the network issue helps.

Re 'other files play fine', let's not get ahead of ourselves. What is your audio set up? Is the audio outputting through the display via HDMI? Or do you have a receiver?

Are you able to run the tvservice command? If so, what does it return?

I'm not trying to be obstructive or condescending, I just think it helps to have all the facts on the table.
