OpeSUSE, like Fedora, doesn't support non-free or proprietary formats in the community version. So, if you want to use proprietary or restricted codecs you will have to install restricted formats. It's extremely easy using openSUSE KDE.
Just visit this page and select the easier 1-click installation.
Follow the instructions (it might through some warnings as it tries to resolve dependencies. Just make sure not to chose an option which says 'breaking' a package, instead choose the one which asks from downgrading another package.)
Once done you are good to play any proprietary formats using openSUSE.

A free software fund-a-mental-ist and Charles Bukowski fan, Swapnil also writes fiction and tries to find cracks in a proprietary company's 'paper armours'. He is a big movie buff and prefers listening to music at such high volumes that he's gone partially deaf when it comes to identifying anything positive about proprietary companies.
