VLC does not find a demuxer for the video stream
https://nrk-od2.telenorcdn.net/open/ps/dnpr/dnpr63701115/d0bc193d-1.smil/sc-gaFEAQ/v4_index.m3u8
or for the audio stream

OMXplayer does play both of them.

Not so much demuxer fail as failure to find the 1st segment of the HLS stream - not sure why but I'll look at it.

I have a fix (that site doesn't like the port number on the Host line which I've got to assume others do) - it'll be in the next update.

After a bit more looking at standards, whilst I have a workaround it looks like it is the server that is non-compliant. I'll still build a workaround but it isn't VLCs fault.

Several of NRK's servers have the same problem, but not all of them. I look forward to a solution.

The issue is that the server doesn't like the port number on the end of
the Host line. This is a server fault, but it is legitimate to omit the
port number if it is the default so remove it if that is the case.
