The biggest drawback of Fedora IMO, is lack of A/V codecs. You have to know to add the rpmfusion repositories to get all that stuff. From what I understand, Mint pretty much covers the A/V stuff pretty well doesn’t it?
It copes well with the stupid A4 AMD audio drivers that have given me fits, and in my tests, did ok with video.
Of course, the touch screen... no-one seems to support that. Stupid HP TouchSmart....

Yes, VCL comes as a component (which already has pretty much all the codecs needed).. Only once.. 1 vid file, did I have to run Kaffiene to run a video..
oops.. typo.. meant VLC... ;^)
