If you are using Xine to play videos and you get no picture and Xine does not give you an error dialog about the video codec missing I would check the video card type.
I had a problem just like that and found that my video card was the problem. It is an on-board video card that uses shared system memory. Once I found that I found that xine has a few different options for running if a Frame Buffer video environment.
In Xine you use the --video-driver option but I don't know what options are available or what Mplayer would use.
Kaffiene uses xine-lib, that would be the same as Xine-Ui but the options maybe different. I think Suse uses Kaffiene by default.

Hi all, I installed Suse 10 on a friend's machine and did the usual de-crippling of video. He can play DVD, MPG, AVI but WM9 gives him sound with no picture. The files are fine as they play on my Gentoo machine. I tried over writing his win32 codecs with mine with no change. Any ideas?
