Does you sound card support mmap audio playback ?
The error decription sound as if the sound card would not support mmap
playback.  Which soundcard do you have and which soundsystem do you use
?

playingh without sound (-a 0) works ?

The MPEG-LA wants money if you distribute binary mpeg audio/video
encoder. And for that reason Suse (probably every linux distibution)
does not include the binry version.

Maybe the mpeg encoder is in the source mjpegtools package. And you only
need to compile that package to thave them.

Would make sense. It can be that the precompiled packages ist slower
than the selfcompiled. On the other hand the rpm package on SF have the
mpeg2enc and mp2enc included. ;)

auf hoffentlich bald,
