How to enable HEVC and Prores codecs in RV 2024?

Hello,
In RV 2023, we were able to enable the support for HEVC and Prores files by following the instructions in <install_root>/src/mio_ffmpeg.
(see this issue Plans for H265 / HEVC support in RV? )

It seems like since RV 2024, there is no such option, There is nothing in <install_root>/src/ and the library in <install_root>/plugins/MovieFormats/ has been renamed to mio_ffmpeg_commercial.so. What is the significance of this change ?

What is the recommended way to enable support for these codecs ?
Thank you !
