Why doesn’t OpenSuSe support MP3 ‘out of the box’?
OpenSuSe cannot include support for MP3 or DVD video playback or recording. MP3 formats are patented, and the patent holders have not provided the necessary licenses. OpenSuSe also excludes other multimedia software due to patent, copyright, or license restrictions, such as Adobe Flash Player and RealNetworks RealPlayer.
That doesn’t mean you can’t play .mp3 files in OpenSuSe , it just takes a bit of work (not much).
Follow these instructions to get mp3 and other multimedia support on your OpenSuSe 11.2.
Use "1-click" installer to install all the required Codecs pack
Flash
Java
Latest Amarok (with MP3 Support) for KDE, or Helix-Banshee for GNOME users
Encrypted DVD (libdvdcss)
Extra XINE Codecs, for DivX/Xvid etc. (libxine1)
K3b with MP3 Support (k3b-codecs)
Win 32 Codecs (w32codec-all)
Multimedia Players:
Mplayer - Download and run this file.
VLC Player - Download and run this file.
And after successful installation you should be able to play any media files.
