As you might know, DVD support in SuSE is crippled due to legal restrictions. In addition to not distributing a binary capable of encrypted DVD playback, they are not distributing the source code to xine-lib, most probably because of legal concerns as well.

Luckily enough, they do distribute de RPM .spec file they use to build the package, and it is ready to build all the plugins, even the “forbidden” ones. Using it to obtain a fully functional xine-lib for your AMD64 in a nice SuSE aware RPM is quite straightforward. You can either follow the instructions here, or forget about it and download the packages I prepared.
