Problem with Gallery and videoplayer

[P.]

Hello dear Samsung users, I have a problem when I want to open a video in my gallery I am redirected to the video player and have no choice but to watch it on the video player. But I want to watch my videos in the gallery app because I want to I don't think the video player is suitable for my purposes and the gallery is perfect for it. Out of nowhere it stopped working even though I didn't even touch my phone otherwise it has always worked for a year, thanks for listening

The video player doesn't work on my S23Ultra, cannot even install it with A14.

I can't remember if it was possible to remove that video player. If you don't use it, maybe disable it.

Now , I grabbed my s22Ultra, it works as expected.

Did this happen after some software update ?

I've already tried but it won't go away

A friend of mine has the same cell phone as me and it works. I think it's a bug

Well you cannot , and you should not.

You could try to clean the Gallery Cache , also try to wipe the Cache partition.

The real Samsung Video player app - at least in the past - had more features than gallery built-in video player.
Maybe this depends on video typ / codec, i.e. if gallery player can't handle it, it opens the real one. Try to shoot a video with camera app and look how gallery deals with it. Should open in gallery built-in
