As Jason Craig says, you probably want the libavdcodec from packman.
Thank you both for your insights, and for redirecting the conversation to the correct list. I guess I'll try switching over to the Packman repository.
Reminds me, it was reccomended long ago to not have both videolan and packman repos active.
Out of curiosity, do we know why libavcodec59 is absent from the videolan.org repo? https://en.opensuse.org/VLC says that…
Good question.
Full power VLC and libav/ffmpeg are available in Packman and VLC repository
… but does not elaborate on the differences between those two repositories. Reading this (and the identical installation procedures that follow), I figured that both repos should provide the same capabilities; IIUC this is not the case?
I don't know. It is a question for the videolan people, I think. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.3)
