For this specific type you can install either gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad or gstreamer1.0-libav Both will enable h.264 & aac decoding. Probably best in long run to just install both.

sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-libav

If you wanted to fill out support further you could add the gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly package though not needed in this case.
