Hello Team,

I got popup an popup when i am going to play video from any website and the popup is "to play video you may need to install the required video codecs".

even I am able to playing video in any website. and i have already applied this command is "sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras". and after that i am getting this popup.

FYI I am using "Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS".

Thanks & Regards

Make sure you have the latest FFmpeg and libavcodec packages installed.
