without maybe being comprehensive nor even complete... The following is
more or less what to to do get a mplayer version vor SuSE 8.1 that is
capable of the most things the standard SUSE version can do and - more
important - play divx etc. videos.

BEFORE I did things like that I always only downloaded the tar-ball,
default skin, default fonts and win32codec from the mplayer homepage and
it worked fine. However, with the SuSE 8.1 I saw that some other things
can be done with mplayer as well, so I made some attempts on it.

Maybe with the following you can get everything from SuSE plus divx and
so on (the really important thins :-) to work. Altough I never tested
"LIVE" streaming (rtps:// or so).
