Screen Recordings from iPhone are now corrupted in Photos.app on MacOS Mojave 10.14.3

While all screen recordings and gifs from my old iPhone 6 Plus play just fine on my iMac in Photos.app. Any screen recordings or gifs from my iPhone X and now XS Max, refuse to play.

While normal videos recorded play just fine, screen recordings do not.

I cannot export or play the video in Mac photos, however they still play fine on my iPhone. When I try to delete the file from Mac and re-add them, they once again become corrupted.

I have gone into the master fold of Photos and the screen recordings are not even showing up there, however they are on my iPhone and play fine and the thumbnails are saved in the Mac Photos app.

I do not and have never used iCloud Photo Library. All of my devices are always up to date as well. This is not acceptable Apple.

I have also tried to repair the library, but it shows no problems when doing so.
