This is an example I used in a Windows forum to just show an example of some of the things a typical home user might want to do and how easy it was in openSUSE.
This is a streaming video, but is pretty large at 146 megs, so if you have a slow connection it may not stream very well.
If it doesn't stream well for you, you can click the pause button, and let the video progress bar load ahead, you should then have no problems viewing it.
