I freely admit I know very little about codecs and video playback. In the past everything has just worked for me. As I said, all of my DVD drives have died.... But since I've been doing upgrades since they were working I should have what I need for things to work. With that in mind, it may be a good idea to see what gstreamer plugins you've installed? Here is what is on my system. [egreshko@meimei backups]$ rpm -qa | grep gstream | grep plug | grep good gstreamer1-plugins-good-1.12.2-1.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.31-18.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-good-extras-0.10.31-18.fc26.x86_64 [egreshko@meimei backups]$ rpm -qa | grep gstream | grep plug | grep bad gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-extras-0.10.23-39.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.23-39.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.23-8.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-1.12.2-1.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-bad-freeworld-1.12.2-1.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.23-39.fc26.i686 gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-gtk-1.12.2-1.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-bad-nonfree-0.10.23-4.fc26.x86_64 [egreshko@meimei backups]$ rpm -qa | grep gstream | grep plug | grep ugly gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-1.12.2-1.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.19-22.fc26.x86_64 gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-free-1.12.2-1.fc26.x86_64 -- Fedora Users List - The place to go to speculate endlessly
