Unable to listen to downloaded local files on my iphone

My Question or Issue

So i wanted to sync local files to my iphone for a long time now, but everytime i try it, it doesn't really seem to work for me.

So i connect both my PC and iphone to the same network and start the syncing process. I put the local files in some playlist so i can download this playlist on my iphone. I did a clean reinstall before this! So eventually my iphone is able to download all the local files and my phone shows that the local files are downloaded(they can be clicked on).


But than as soon as i click on most of the local files/songs, the songs don't start playing and nothing happens. From the 12 songs that are downloaded only 3 actually work when i click on play, which is weird. 

 

I don't know what the problem is here, because the syncing system seems to work, but it refuses to let me play most of the downloaded local files.

 

I have added a video to this post to show you what i mean. I hope someone has a solution for this.

It has to do with how you download your songs. Everybody that has this problem should try and download their songs from another source or something, it will probably work then. At least most of my songs started playing when i downloaded them in another way. So problem solved.
