Viewing external video using the PowerShot SX720 HS

NUESVXUFV
Apprentice

Hello, I have an SX720 camera. For years, I have been able to view photos from my computer on my camera, even after converting them to Canon format and giving them the same name as the other photos in the folder. Unfortunately, I have never been able to import and view videos on my camera. Even though I converted to the same encoding and format, I was told as an option that the problem is that, unlike the vast majority of existing files, whose file structure is:

Header
MD$
Data
(MD$
Data
and so on)
Footer
Canon videos have a different (and reversed) structure, first the Data and then the MD$.

I am looking for a way to overcome the problems and change the external video files so that I can view them on my camera. This is very, very important to me, and I have invested a lot of money and time in this. I understand that the camera is not designed to be viewed like a computer, but I am still asking for help and guidance from Canon experts because this is very important to me! And not just for me but for my entire community [we are tens of thousands of people who don't like using computers and we all own Canon cameras] We have been doing everything we can to succeed for years, and if you can help us it would be really, really special!!!

Thank you very much!
