From the packman site below, you will need to install:

libxine1
kaffeine

libxine1 will replace the xine-lib package on your system.

You will also need libdvdread and libdvdnav if you want the dvd menus to work.

You will also need libdvdcss if you want to play encrypted dvd's.

http://developers.videolan.org/libdvdcss/

You may need to compile it yourself, or google for it to find the rpm package.
For legal reasons I don't believe the packman site has this one.

There is a way to setup the packman site as a yast source so that you can just
install these packages with yast. Go to Yast->Change Source of Installation,
and add a http source. The server name is packman.iu-bremen.de
and the directory on the server is suse/9.3.
Then you can use Yast->Install and Remove Software to install these packages.

Hope that helps.
