Video with codec H264 only play sound on linux

Hi,

I am on linux Xubuntu 22 and just installed latest version with flatpak 1.5.2

Video in mp4 H265 are able to play but for those in mp4 H264 or mov H264, I can only hear the sound and just got a black screen. Same thing for much older video with codec mjpg.
Video thumbnails work for all, no issues on that.

Do I need to install anything or change any setting so I am able to see the video and not just hear sounds?
Thanks
