Is there a reason why you are running VLC rather than Mplayer or Xine or Kaffeine? If so, then you have to bear down and install the dependencies. The only good thing to come out of videolan in my opinion is this:
http://download.videolan.org/pub/lib....2.8-1.src.rpm
And that's it.
A suggestion that will solve all of your problems for the rest of your life(tm) would be to use apt4rpm. Never run Suse without it.

Install these files and dependencies via YAST
ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt...PMS.suser-rbos
Edit these future files once installed to look like this:
/etc/apt/sources.list
rpm

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/gpg-checker.conf
// Make GPG::Check no; to disable gpg checking
// It can still be used in combination with --checksig
GPG::Check false;
Scripts::PM::Pre:: gpg-checker.lua;
Type:
init 3
apt-get update
apt-get check
apt-get install whateverappyouwant
apt-get upgrade (to do a safe distro upgrade)
apt-get dist-upgrade (to do a full system aka kernel included upgrade)
In GUI, you can use synaptic to do the same. But command line is much more fun.
And so, what does this mean for you? Glad you didn't ask.
You just type "apt-get install vlc" and you are done. That's it.
