I have a notebook:
LG lm50a
with an ati radeon 9700 video card.
Suse 10.1 used to play video clips (wmv and mpeg).  However since I
upgraded to 10.1 and subsequently 10.2 I cannot get video playback to
work. (ie not with either level)
I've followed the instructions for adding the community supported rpm's
to no avail. 

when I start a video playback I get sound but mplayer, and xine both
show a blank black video display area.  Neither app prints an error
message.  If I attempt to discover which codecs are supported:

mplayer -vo help

wmv and mpeg are not listed.   In fact none of the proprietary formats
are. Whats the point of installing the /usr/lib/win32 stuff?  Are there
any detailed instructions for how to proceed from here?
frustrated.
