All current QTX media players support H.264/AAC MOV (distribution) files and ProRes422/LPCM MOV (archival and editing) files as the default standard while macOS High Sierra and iOS/tvOS 11 additionally support HEVC/AAC MOV files natively.

In these cases. either reset the iPhone to record using H.264 video, transcode to H.264 'on-the-fly' while transferring the files, or upgrade the macOS to High Sierra if supported.
