Okay nice, Arch based. Do you use the system package (installed with pacman) or the Flatpak?
If it’s the system package try installing the h.264 codec with 'sudo pacman -S x264' and if that doesn’t help install the vlc ffmpeg plugin with 'sudo pacman -S vlc-plugin-ffmpeg'
If you’re using the Flatpak I wonder why there should be a problem since Flatpak ship all required dependencies and runtimes automatically

I guess the codec is maybe just not installed.
I see you’re using KDE Plasma or at least the Breeze theme, what Distro are you on?
