Curiously I have the same computer as you. :)

Possible solutions:

1. I realized that sometimes a video is downloaded in with two files with the same name, a mp4 file and a wav file. Check if you was playing the wav file only, which is a only audio video and not the mp4.

2. Also, check if the VLC software hast the latest update, older versions have issues with new video formats.

What I realize is that even I get videos playing, the video won't play smoothly... and this is frustrating... maybe somebody else can help us in this point (or you get the videos playing well and let me know how).

Cheers!

I have the same issue with few videos from Hero6 Black. I tried to playing in latest version of VLC...still shows and image and plays audio.

Please advise how to resolve.

What are your computer specs and OS?

Use VLC nightly build. I have a i7 6700HQ and GTX 960M 4GB, Quick says that my computer doesn't meet the minimum requirement of playing HVEC. But guess what, VLC plays it just fine.
