I'm usually on Debian but here I have the latest openSUSE Leap 15.2, and I tried today to install vlc with full H.264 support according to https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-suse.html .
The "1-click-install" gives the following error:

An error occurred while initializing the software repository.

Problem: nothing provides libavcodec57(unrestricted) needed by vlc-codecs-3.0.11.1-lp152.339.1.x86_64
Solution 1: do not install vlc-codecs-3.0.11.1-lp152.339.1.x86_64
Solution 2: break vlc-codecs-3.0.11.1-lp152.339.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

According to this post from August the Packman repo was required. But then, the Packman repo has its own full package of VLC, so there wouldn't be much point in VideoLAN's repository?
