You're making things way too complicated, futzing around with individual downloads from here and there. Life will be a lot simpler when you just let the computer do the work. Use whatever package management system you want - yast, smart, apt, yum or whatever. Add the packman repos, and then tell the system to install a media player of your choice. It could be kaffeine, mplayer, xine or whatever you prefer. The package management system will then automagically pull in and install all the dependencies. If you want to play dvds, also install the dvdcss libs, last I heard they were available on the vlc site.
