Hi all,
I’m trying to watch a video in h265 using VLC, but I get the error VLC could not decode the format "hevc" (MPEG-H Part2/HEVC (H.265))
. MPV doesn’t work either, but no error message is shown.
I think it might be due to the lack of appropriate codecs, but I am honestly lost among the various packages I need to install, especially because I’m on an atomic variant, Kinoite, so I have to layer lots of packages. I tried to follow some guides, but it still hasn’t worked.
My current ostree deployment (with layered packages) is the following:
