Are you on Fedora?
My recommendation is to install gnome-mplayer:
sudo yum install gnome-mplayer
Then, with your file browser, find one of your videos, right click and choose 
properties, click on the "Open with" tab, then click on Gnome Mplayer, then 
click on "Set as default"
After that you should be able to play your videos from shotwell.
Also, you might want to install gstreamer-ffmpeg:
sudo yum install gstreamer-ffmpeg
This will put thumbnails on your shotwell videos.
