I looked around VIA-LA (which acquired MPEG-LA in 2023), and I can't see any free licenses about H.264. "Request a license" gives you an e-mail address, and that's it.

There are other license models, which is about manufacturers, publishers and TV stations, etc.

But nowhere it says "there's a free license for these cases, just get it from here".

This all looks like a rabbit hole for me.
