The easiest solution is to add the Packman repository to either YAST or Smart and install MPlayer, the w32codecs and optionally the mplayerplugin.

I've already done that, but doesn't work. Is it necessary unistall the player (kaffeine) before install w32codecs?

Well that depends... You haven't exactly explained what your problem is... so I'm just guessing here... If you are clicking on a media file in a file manager and Kaffine is popping up instead of MPlayer, you can do a couple of things... You can remove Kaffine from your install (this is my personal choice since I don't like the Kaffine media player), When you remove Kaffine, MPlayer (if it's installed) will automatically slide into the preferred media player position (assuming other media players like Totem are not also installed). Or you can also go into your file associations in KDE (part of the configuration for Konqueror) and just change the WMV, AVI, MPG etc video associations to MPlayer - they are probably currenly pointing to Kaffine or Totem (or others) as the preferred player. This solution allows you to keep the media players you already have installed and choose which one suits best for the media you want to play. It might be possible to convince Kaffine to use the w32codecs... I don't know as I never install that media player. Personally... I remove (or do not install) Kaffine, Totem, Xine and the rest... MPlayer does the job very nicely of playing any and all media I throw at it, including embedded videos in webpages. Some people have a similar preference for Xine.. but I cannot comment on Xine as an alternative since I don't use it.
