You can do so by using the following steps:
  1. Connect your phone to the computer using the provided USB cable by plugging the micro USB connector to the micro USB port in your device (it's located under the Home key) and the USB connector to a USB port on your PC. If it's the first time for you to connect your phone with the PC, your PC may need a few minutes to install the driver. By default, your phone will use MTP as the connection mode.
  2. When your phone has been successfully connected to your PC, launch Samsung Kies 3 app in your computer. If you have not installed this app yet, you can download it here and then install it in your computer.

  4. In the Kies screen, click Videos located at the left side menu. All videos in your phone, either those in the internal storage or in the SD card, will be displayed here.
  5. Tap at the top of the Kies screen and then select Internal memory if you'd like to add the videos to the DCIM\Camera folder in the internal storage of your phone, or select External memory if you'd like to add the videos to the DCIM\Camera folder in the SD card.
  6. Navigate to the folder in your Windows PC where the videos you want to add to the phone are placed in.
  7. Select the required videos you want to add to your phone and then Click the Open button.
  8. The selected videos will be added to your phone.
  9. Once the process is completed, you can disconnect your phone from Samsung Kies 3 app by clicking in the right side of the device name in the Kies screen. Then, you can disconnect your phone from the PC by unplugging the USB cable from your phone and your PC.
