This is a screenshot:
Is that the Flatpak or the native version of kdenlive?
There was another thread about this error message: Kdenlive - Unsupported video codec: libx264
So, do you have ffmpeg from Packman Essentials installed?zypper se -si ffmpeg
I noticed that I have version libx264-165 installed (compared to libx264-164 in your output).
I don’t have kdenlive installed though.
Edit: You seem to have the openh264-repo twice. Can you show the output of zypper lr -d?

Two outputs above.
I am running kdenlive latest on Tumbleweed and that issue can be resolved by installing from Packman (full not essentials)

Look at the URLs! You have the standard Tumbleweed repos as well as through download.opensuse .org as well as through cdn.opensuse.org. Decide what you want and remove the others.
Your version of ffmpeg is from the OSS repo, which does not have h264 support.
In case you need instructions on how to install codes from packman (essentials should be enough) l, you can follow this: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Installing_codecs_from_Packman_repositories
If you want to use the command from the wiki page, you need to adjust the alias of the packman repo, as your repo is not named packman-essentials but ftp.gwdg.de-Essentials

I did nothing with the repos. They are installed from the beginning.
Even though that might have happened without your intention Henk is still right. You should probably clear that a bit.

And if I may add to this.
Having them twice isn’t a disaster, but as you see from your zypper se -si ffmpeg listing, things are now found twice, with is a bit confusing. At least for us.
And I see them even thrice because you have a local repo RPM paczki active that apparently also has these packages. Again, rather confusion for us. Not for you?

I installed Flatpak version and everything is ok.
Good that it works but if you don’t switch the codecs to the packman version you might run into problems with playing media on your system. You probably didn’t do the vendor switch after installing the packman essentials repo.

I switched to Packman repo and removed Essential.

It is complete unclear what you did.
If you removed Packman Essentials repo and added Packman (total), nothing has changed because installed packages do not change because repos are changed. Some installation action must be done.
If you earlier did a switch to Packman Essentials and now replaced the Pckaman Essential for he Packlman (total) and did the switch again, nothing will be changed to the packages you had already from Essentials because they are the same.
I do not use flatpacks
