Video clips stuck in iPhoto, won't open and play

I have several small video clips in iPhoto. They will not open or play in QuickTime Pro or iTunes movies. When I tried to open them in Slide Show, they just showed a black screen. I cannot drag them to desktop or anywhere else. It's like they are not even there (except they are). They even are listed, for example, as VID00001 00:07, VID00002 00:13, etc....

I have tried every possible solution I could find on this forum and Google but nothing works.

What file type/format are the videos? Select one and click on the info button at the bottom left of the iPhoto window. They may need converting.
