Problem Fedora 37 includes a notable change which disables hardware acceleration for proprietary video codecs (most commonly H.264 and H.265) when using the Mesa drivers stack. Open video codecs (VP8, VP9, AV1 - based on your hardware capabilities) are unaffected and can still be hardware-accelerated out of the box. This change mainly affects AMD graphics cards. (Intel GPUs don’t use Mesa for video acceleration, Nvidia cards use the proprietary driver, and Mesa video acceleration mostly doesn’…

Even the RPMFusion guide with instructions on how to install mesa-freeworld has different sections for different GPUs.
