I got it working now.
It isn't hard when you install this package:
http://packman.links2linux.org/index...ction=124&vn=2
Install libxine1-1_rc6a-0.pm.0.i586.rpm with YaST, then when you are confronted with missing packages by YaST, look at the bottom of the page, the missing packages are probably there.
Good luck!
