SUMMARY
Haruna is no longer able to play any video files for me, I've tried other media players and they all work fine. Haruna reports "No video track detected, most likely the video track can't be decoded/played due to missing codecs".

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open video file
2. See above error, audio plays but no video output.

OBSERVED RESULT
No video

EXPECTED RESULT
Video

Installed Haruna 1.7.0 and it happens there as well, I don't see anything that gets output to the logs about this.
Comment 2 george fb 2025-12-24 19:25:43 UTC 
Works  for me.
Does it play in mpv?
Does the flatpak version of Haruna work?

Yes all videos play in mpv, will check flatpak later today.

Can confirm flatpak is also broken.

This appears to have fixed itself? Not sure where the issue was but after installing some updates it is no longer an issue, so it appears the problem stemmed from some other library.
