Restricted Formats
From openSUSE-Community
There are several formats that cannot be included on the openSUSE CDs/DVD because they're proprietary, patented formats. These pages will try to go over how to enable some of these non-free formats.
Note: Different copyright and patent laws apply differently depending on what country you are in; if you are unsure about a particular restriction or patent, you might consider applying for legal advice. This site does not offer legal advice. For more information about why some formats/codecs are restricted and why they don't ship out-of-the-box on openSUSE, read Restricted Formats.
[edit] Take me to the guide!
