Thanks for the guide, but these steps don't work for me:

Hello,

This process also works for 12.1 ?? Is it possible to add these directly into the yast repository list ('add repository' feature), or is it better to do via the console??

Thanks -- Roger

You can use Yast > Software Repositories > Add > Community
And select Packman and Libdvdcss from the list

Then use the code to install the packages with zypper

Any idea as to when the one click here for openSUSE 12.2 would be ready ?

Probably not until after release

thank you. i am translating this page to Persian for Iranian openSUSE users.

two questions:
1- can you add commands to this article for recognizing windows NTFS partitions and allow read/write operation on them in openSUSE?
2- does openSUSE open Zip and RAR format files? if not, is it possible for you to add commands to this article about how install these formats in openSUSE?

and what about ntfs?

[caf4926]

and what about ntfs?

ntfs works out of the box
there is actually no need to do anything special with mount points or labels

I just tested it now, mounted my ntfs partition on the fly from dolphin and copied over a file.
There is nothing anyone should need to do

Could not install ffmpeg.

Did everything in previous instructions and this one as well. Inserted a dvd movie and said missing NAV packet. Now what?

[caf4926]

try

libavutil51

[Pinstripedtie]

try

libavutil51

Apparently I don't have the correct repository. But I did select the ones listed.

It is not found.

Still getting the same response. No Go.

I really wonder why it is illegal for openSuse to pre-install all the multi-media files and yet, every other distro DOES do this??

Post the result of

zypper lr -d

For 12.2 KDE I get a lot of problems during install.

ex.

Problem: k3b-codecs-2.0.2-15.44.x86_64 requires k3b = 2.0.2-15.44, but this requirement cannot be provided
  uninstallable providers: k3b-2.0.2-15.44.x86_64[packman]
 Solution 1: downgrade of k3b-2.0.2-22.1.2.x86_64 to k3b-2.0.2-15.44.x86_64
 Solution 2: do not install k3b-codecs-2.0.2-15.44.x86_64
 Solution 3: break k3b-codecs-2.0.2-15.44.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

Choose from above solutions by number or skip, retry or cancel [1/2/3/s/r/c] (c): 1

Problem: gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad-orig-addon-0.10.23-13.11.x86_64 requires libmpeg2encpp-2.0.so.0()(64bit), but this requirement cannot be provided
  uninstallable providers: libmjpegutils-2_0-0-2.0.0-47.4.x86_64[packman]
 Solution 1: replacement of libmjpegutils-2_0-0-2.0.0-5.2.2.x86_64 with libmjpegutils-2_0-0-2.0.0-47.4.x86_64
 Solution 2: do not install gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad-orig-addon-0.10.23-13.11.x86_64
 Solution 3: break gstreamer-0_10-plugins-bad-orig-addon-0.10.23-13.11.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

Choose from above solutions by number or skip, retry or cancel [1/2/3/s/r/c] (c):

[caf4926]

Solution 1 in both instances
