This has been solved for Java versions, for gcc release, for databases, and for multiple python releases. /etc/alternatives mostly works, compat libraries work, SCL installs work. Let’s avoid inventing another packaging and naming scheme for this, we’re only just recovering from “modularity”.

I think I am going to switch to the flatpak version. Last time I remember I used it it had all multimedia support by default. This way I would not have to fight between rpmfusion and negativo repos. But, I still don't understand given that ffmpeg is all open-source, what prevents fedora from

Thanks Luya, I have all ffmpeg and gstreamer codecs installed. 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
