Hi.

I could play it with mpv. It is working.

This is my list of enabled repositories

I reinstalled vlc and nothing, it gave me the same problem. It plays the audio but not the video and it pop ups the message

Codec not supported:

VLC could not decode the format "h264" (H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10))

Do you have a sample link on the web of this codec?  The reason I ask
is I would like to see if it plays here.  Do you have the fedora h264
repository installed and active?  I just got an update on it today, so
maybe the means to play it is available with that update.  It is called
fedora-cisco-openh264.repo

You could try ffplay, part of the ffmpeg program.  It is actively
developed, and seems to get the latest codecs very quickly.  I think it
is the underlying basis for many of the other video players on fedora.
