    is there a way to add H.264 support to Chromium on Fedora 23/24?

    Any workaround or alternative solution is fine.

    I currently use spot's Chromium repo.

    EDIT: It seems, there is currently no other option that would not require recompiling Chromium. EDIT: Ubuntu has chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra package that adds necessary codecs. But this support has to be enabled at compilation time in Chromium.
