This may be intentional / required for legal reasons. Assign to maintainer to handle.

That's correct - 'out of the box' we can play (patent) free media codecs only, like Ogg Theora, Vorbis, Matroska (and still many more) For all the others, you should enable the VideoLAN repository:

zypper ar http://download.videolan.org/SuSE/Leap_42.2/ VideoLAN zypper in vlc-codecs

This will ask for some vendor changes (some packages need to be replaced, e.g. libavcodec) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
