Can't play Video

Bug description

I can't open any Videos with Signal, neither those sent by myself nor those I have received. Images work fine though; I haven't tested other media yet. I assume the problem is that Signal sends garbage to the video player which then obviously can't play it. Or maybe both the Gallery Video Player and VLC can't handle content:// URIs? Unfortunately I'm not very experienced with Android / Intents, but this should be the code VLC uses to handle intents, I think.

Steps to reproduce

• Click on a Video in any chat
• Confirm View secure media? dialog
• (pick Video player to open the video with)
• Video can't be played
