Videos are not played in "Diplomacy Is Not an Option" game

Hello!

I encountered a problem.
Videos are not played in "Diplomacy Is Not an Option" game.
They seem to be made with humor, I would like to see them in the game.
The video freezes on the first frame.

I launch the game from Steam.
Steam package installed from multilib.
In steam log only this:

Adding process 4438 for gameID 1272320
Fossilize INFO: Overriding serialization path: "/mnt/storage/SteamLibrary/steamapps/shadercache/1272320/fozpipelinesv6/steamapprun_pipeline_cache".
01/27 23:10:30 minidumps folder is set to /tmp/dumps

01/27 23:10:30 Init: Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(gameoverlayui)/version(1.0)/tid(4546)

Maybe someone has already solved this problem?

Try using proton-ge variants, they include some video/media codec enablement patches that aren't part of standard proton, you can use e.g. protonup-qt from the AUR to easily install Proton-GE versions into your steam compat libs.
