+## Update 2024-08-22
+
+Fedora installs only free software by default, which means that [Kdenlive][] and
+other multimedia software will have trouble using H.264 and H.265 video codecs.
+A free version of [ffmpeg][] is installed by default. This is what I did to
+replace `ffmpeg-free` with the non-free `ffmpeg` on F40:
+
+1. Enable the non-free [RPM Fusion][] repositories as written on the [RPM Fusion
+   homepage][]:
+
+   ```bash
+   sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
+   sudo dnf config-manager --enable fedora-cisco-openh264 
+   ```
+
+2. Remove `ffmpeg-free` in favor of `ffmpeg`:
+
+   ```bash
+   sudo dnf swap ffmpeg-free ffmpeg --allowerasing
+   ```
+
+After doing that and restarting Kdenlive, I was able to render my project using
+the H.264 and H.265 codecs as I used to be able to do with Ubuntu-based systems.
