Jayant,

I do not know if you have done this, but goto YAST -> Software
Management -> Add Repositories

There you will find a PACMAN Repository, make that active and then
from YAST install mplayer & win32codecs. This should ideally sort the
issues out.

I have followed this procedure to get video and audio files playing on
my openSuse 11.

HTH

Aditya
