Thanks for the report @freelibre1 . This could be because of to a conflict between the newish ffmpeg in the Fedora repos and the ffmpeg that RPM Fusion has traditionally provided but we'll need to diagnose it a little bit to be sure:
https://rpmfusion.org/CommonBugs?highlight=%28ffmpeg%29
Could you please open a topic on https://ask.fedoraproject.org and we can debug it there and update the docs if necessary.
Metadata Update from @ankursinha: - Issue tagged with: needs info
Done. https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/cant-install-codecs/31457
@freelibre1 @ankursinha Please, could you provide some information about the current status? It's open now for 2 months and the last post at ask.fedora is about a month old.
I think the instructions are fine. RPM Fusion does document that one needs to swap the fedora ffmpeg package with the rpmfusion one, and that they're meant to conflict:
You might want to add this command to that page then:
I don't know about the current status, I have been using Fedora just fine since then.
You might want to add this command to that page: sudo dnf swap ffmpeg-free ffmpeg --allowerasing
sudo dnf swap ffmpeg-free ffmpeg --allowerasing
