but something appears to be missing, e.g. Dragon Player:
Could not locate full support for the H.264 video codec; video playback support may be less reliable than expected.
Please contact the Fedora Linux Asahi Remix developers about this issue, or to find out how to install the missing video codecs.
When no kind of playback is possible at all:
Cannot create codec,No SW decoder found
I am on a fresh install of Asahi Fedora Remix 43, IIRC on 42 / upgrade to 43 I wasn’t having these problems.
The following command output looks suspicious though (although I don’t really know how to act upon the problem):
yalihupokn@zoqu-endiman:~$ sudo dnf update @multimedia --setopt="install_weak_deps=False" --exclude=PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin

Any ideas?
[UPDATE]
“There you don’t need libavcodec-freeworld that is only meant to complement the ffmpeg-free package (and related libraries).”
but
yalihupokn@zoqu-endiman:~$ sudo dnf remove libavcodec-free
