To accelerate H.264/H.265, you need to replace the stripped Fedora
versions with the full versions from the RPM Fusion repository:
sudo dnf swap mesa-va-drivers mesa-va-drivers-freeworld --allowerasing
sudo dnf swap mesa-vdpau-drivers mesa-vdpau-drivers-freeworld --allowerasing
However, the Fedora wiki[1] indicates that even open codecs are no
longer accelerated without third party packages. Is that true?
On Intel, you need to install the libva-intel-driver (i915) and
intel-media-driver (iHD) packages.
On NVIDIA, you're forced to use proprietary drivers as hardware
acceleration on nouveau only works on very old GPUs.
