By default the DivX and mp3 format playbacks are not enable as SUSE 11 does not include the required Codecs by default (this might be because mp3 and DivX are not open source, although they might be free).

To enable the playback of these, do the following:

1. Save this one click install file depending on your X Manager.

If running GNOME download and install http://opensuse-community.org/codecs-gnome.ymp

If running KDE download and install http://opensuse-community.org/codecs-kde.ymp
