in Leap 15.2 I am unable to play videos from my NAS over samba. The error message given is [ffmpeg] Protocol not found. Make sure ffmpeg/Libav is compiled with networking support. This was reported a few months ago . . . https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/539418-tumbleweed-update-no-longer-can-play-videos-from-smb-share and fixed in Tumbleweed / ffmpeg4 However, Leap 15.2 ships with ffmpeg3 and samba support appears to have not been backported to this version. Original issue is caused by mpv now requiring ffmpeg for samba support rather than supplying samba support itself https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/28ea1ed296a4e241ee57d9748ff0cfa073e5219c
