Why isn't there an option to install other repos codecs and impls ( i know the
technical answer) ? I thought Fedora was now supposed to be focused on being developer
friendly. Dev's could just install another distro of the os that allows licenses like
debian/ubuntu... except maybe I still would anyway since I'd have less trouble with
those repos recently (re: x64 requires flatpak/winepak). These growing pains are
understandable, but this is getting to be a bigger issue if we cannot simply install and
use the tools we need.

Subject: Re: Blender for Fedora 31 does not support multimedia?
Blender in Fedora repository is built with ffpmeg support disabled by default for legal
reasons. Negativo which is one of co-maintainers provides nearly identical version with
FFmpeg enabled accessible via fedora-multimedia branch.
https://negativo17.org/repos
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.

Hi
It seems that Blender 2.8 on Fedora 31 does not support sound and
video playback and export.
Does anyone have the same issue? Is that normal on Fedora 31?

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.
