Do you have w32codec-all, libdvdread3 and libdvdcss2 installed?
libdvdread: http://packman.links2linux.de/package/libdvdread
w32codec-all: http://packman.links2linux.de/package/Win32-Codecs

On a 32-bit opensuse, one way to install libdvdcss2 is to open a terminal/xterm/konsole and type:

su -c "rpm -Uvh http://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.2.9/rpm/libdvdcss2-1.2.9-1.i386.rpm"

enter root password when prompted.
