I think I am going to switch to the flatpak version. Last time I remember I used it it had all multimedia support by default. This way I would not have to fight between rpmfusion and negativo repos.
But, I still don't understand given that ffmpeg is all open-source, what prevents fedora from including it?

Make sure to keep that repo disabled to avoid conflict with rpmfusion.

Thanks Luya,
I have all ffmpeg and gstreamer codecs installed. However, I think blender was installed by OpenShot before I actually installed ffmpeg and gstreamer codecs.
So, it might be the reason why it does not play videos or music. But, reinstalling blender didn't help. Never had this issue before.

Hello Mehda,
Blender requires ffmpeg which cannot be legally included in Fedora
repository to effectively use multimedia due to US patents law. One of
best approach is either get ffmpeg without the offending codecs or
enable an alternative like gstreamer which is beyond the scope of
packaging process.
