Can’t play my h.265 MOV files in Fedora 36 running Gnome. In VLC, I get a gray screen. In Videos, it just plays the first frame.
This is a Dual Boot machine, and the files play fine in VLC and other apps when I boot in to Win 10. Using an i7-6700 and RTX 2060 Super with Nvidia proprietary drivers.
My complete computer and nvidia specs are at the BOTTOM of this post. I am sorry that error logs I posted are so long. I just wanted to be thorough.
In SMPlayer, I get this error:

I tried playing a file by running VLC from the command line and I got this:

etc., about 25 more lines of similar errors.
And later on, I got these lines
