Must likely the codec/video format is not supported by your tv. Note that Kodi does not transcode the video on-the-fly like other software packages (e.g. emby or plex) do. There are at the moment better options to do this rather than Kodi. Despite some advances in that regard which may enable transcoding in the future, Kodi is essentially designed as a media player running on a device attached to the TV and not as a media-server software.
Despite this, and since you can play the files directly from HDD (I assume in your TV) please provide a debug log, otherwise no one will be able to help you out or fix any existing errors.
Cheers
