So, do you actually have ffmpeg installed?

rpm -qi ffmpeg

So I browse and found ffmpeg folder in usr/share,but it doesn’t recognize it,still showing ‘ffmpeg not found’.

I guess you’ll have to supply the ffmpeg executable /usr/bin/ffmpeg.

You need to enable the Packman repo

• Yast - Software - Software repositories - Community. Select the Packman repo, trust the key when prompted for
• Softwaremanager - search for ‘ffmpeg’, check for install.

Next the add-on should find it since the ffmpeg executable is in /usr/bin and ./usr/bin is in the PATH.

We get our support for that from the application “gstreamer-0_10-plugins-ffmpeg - GStreamer Streaming-Media FFmpeg Plug-In”. You should confirm this is loaded for openSUSE 13.1. if you use that version, which I am not sure you mentioned. For multimedia support here are the guides:

openSUSE 13,1: https://forums.opensuse.org/blogs/caf4926/opensuse-13-1-multi-media-restricted-format-installation-guide-149/

openSUSE 12.1: https://forums.opensuse.org/blogs/caf4926/opensuse-12-3-multi-media-restricted-format-installation-guide-126/

As far as I know, openSUSE does not provide direct support for Firefox addins, but you must install the required codes which is the purpose of the two blogs you need to use. Good luck.

Thank You,
