No suitable decoder module
VLC does not support the audio or video format “hevc.
Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
The above error message is a result of trying to play a video file in VLC. The error message doesn’t give a clue either. To fix this we need to install libde265, which is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec.
We will install libde265 via PPA. To install open Terminal and run the commands below:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:strukturag/libde265 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install vlc-plugin-libde265
VLC should now play these media files after installation has been completed successfully.
Enjoy!
