I just can view video in motionJPEG, but when I try to view video in h.264 I only see a black screen. previously I have installed the h264enc package however, I do not know how to use it; how can I do to view h.264 video?
sudo yum install gstreamer-ffmpeg
However, If you need full instructions for enabling the RPM fusion repositories here they are also. The first two lines add the necessary repositories. The last line installs the necessary plugins for variety of video formats as well as viewing DVDs.
sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install gstreamer gstreamer-plugins-good gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly gstreamer-ffmpeg libdvdread libdvdnav lsdvd
Alternatively, you can also install and use vlc or smplayer to view mkv videos–both can decode H.254 .
If it's the codecs you want:
http://fedorasolved.org/post-install-solutions/yum-config
followed by this command:
yum update
yum install gstreamer-{ffmpeg,plugins-{good,ugly,bad{,-free,-nonfree}}}
