Why i can't watch videos? Ubuntu 20.04

Question

I recently installed Ubuntu 20.04 and i have a problem - i can't watch videos.

For example i can watch videos in youtube, but in most of the other websites i can't play the video it says "Format not supported" or "Video can't be played in this browser"

The tracking blocking is set to standart.

Thanks in advance!

Pilot6 answered in the comments, and it worked for me. Writing this just in case someone misses their comment, and has the same problem.

You can just run:

sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras
