I was reading the fedora doc when i stumble upon this
Link - Software Repositories & Tools :: Fedora Docs
are all proprietary codecs being automatically being installed as in now there is no need to do the rpm fusion’s “How to/Multimedia” ?
This only pertains to the h264 codec:
Cisco provides an OpenH264 codec (as a source and a binary), which is their of implementation H.264 codec, and they cover all licensing fees for all parties using their binary. This codec allows you to use H.264 in WebRTC with gstreamer and Firefox.
Since Fedora cannot distribute the codec itself, the package is distributed through Cisco’s own repository. This is outside of RPM Fusion, where other proprietary codecs are provided.
