X-CRM114-Status: Good ( pR: 21.8905 )
Effective immediately, MPEG-1 (H.261) and MPEG-2 (H.262) video
implementations are permitted in Fedora.
Please note that while MPEG-2 is the video format for DVD-Video, support
for encrypted DVD playback is not permitted in Fedora. See:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Forbidden_items#Encrypted_DVD_Playback
Support for MPEG Video formats later than MPEG-2 is not currently permitted
in Fedora. This includes, most notably, H.263, H.264 (MPEG-4), and H.265
(HEVC).
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me, or reply on
list.
Thanks,
Tom Callaway

There should be a science of discontent. People need hard times and
oppression to develop psychic muscles.
