That’s why i recommend having Packman’s repo, you can use it to update
Kaffeine to work with dvd’s/mp3’s etc.Either one of those url’s will do

If you added the Packman repo, go to YaST - software management. in the
search-box type kaffeine. In the right hand pane,right-click kaffeine &
select all in this list, then, update if newer available.Click on apply
& the Packman version should be installed.

Hi

thanks for reply

yes I had, just did the above confirming kaffeine is from pacman and
it’s the same. Wont play audio cd or dvd in Kaffeine but ok in the VLC
media player!

Strange?

Perhaps you haven’t activated the VideoLAN (makers of vlc player)
repository for the one-shot installation of libdvdcss, then delete that
repo so its stuff won’t conflict with Packman’s?

Gotta install libdvdcss for playback of most commercial dvd. Just go
into YaST Repositories, add, select community repos, add the VideoLAN
one, search in Software Management for libdvdcss, install it, go back
into repositories and delete that repo.

There are a few sticky how-to’s here for other recommended things to
get all the multimedia going.

I’ve been playing with the gecko-mediaplayer browser plugin available
from Packman (uninstall the totem-plugin then install that). Once
mplayer and w32codecs are installed (though I also install most of the
ffmpeg stuff too), that plugin appears to be most hassle free to get
most files on the net to play. With other distros I stick to totem but
OpenSUSE appears to thwart it working with the gstreamer restricted
(plugins-ugly) codecs even after they’re installed so I looked about and
found that new gecko plugin.

Install that, flash, and sun-java6 and you should be internet
multimedia ready.

I also, in Software Management, change the list to repositories and
with the Packman repo selected right click one of the packages and
choose all in this update to a newer version if available. That gets a
lot of what’s left over after installing the other things I mentioned.
