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. ________________________________ From: Luya Tshimbalanga <l...@fedoraproject.org> Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2019 4:58 PM To: devel@lists.fedoraproject.org <devel@lists.fedoraproject.org> 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.

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. - Mehdi On Thu, Oct 31, 2019 at 11:26 AM Luya Tshimbalanga <l...@fedoraproject.org<mailto:l...@fedoraproject.org>> wrote: On 2019-10-31 5:05 a.m., Code Zombie wrote: > 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?

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. -- Luya Tshimbalanga Fedora Design Team Fedora Design Suite maintainer _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org<mailto:devel@lists.fedoraproject.org> To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org<mailto:devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org> Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org<mailto:devel@lists.fedoraproject.org> To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org<mailto:devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org> Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org -- Luya Tshimbalanga Fedora Design Team Fedora Design Suite maintainer
