You mean go to a website like opensuse-community.org or opensuse-guide.org, click on a codec 1-click, then click next a couple of times, accept vendor change. Done. Or copy/paste a couple of zypper commands.
Too complicated, or too geeky. What are all those conflicts (technical I understand them)? After inserting a Video DVD, KDE does not offer to play the DVD. After installing the 'Codecs pack for KDE' thing: KDE still does not start a player to play the DVD?! Smooth integration looks different.
For comparison have these people ever tried finding a codecpack for MS Windows without malware, to play anything other than wma/wmv/mp3/avi? (does Windows support anything else out of the box?) ;-)
Compare openSuSE with usable things: Inserting an audio CD opens the player. Inserting a Video DVD opens the player. In Mac OS. That matters. Olaf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
