is there a way to add H.264 support to Chromium on Fedora 23/24?



Any workaround or alternative solution is fine.



I currently use spot's Chromium repo.



EDIT: It seems, there is currently no other option that would not require recompiling Chromium.
EDIT: Ubuntu has chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra package that adds necessary codecs. But this support has to be enabled at compilation time in Chromium.

          In fedora 26 , you can try search all package that related to Chromium by using



          sudo dnf search chromium



          Here we got some information about packages name that match Chromium.



          enter image description here



          Now the package that we need to install was



          chromium-libs-media-freeworld.x86_64



          you can check here to make sure your browser successfully support H.264
