To change your date and time configuration, for example to change your time zone or the way the
date and time are displayed, click Computer > Control Center > System > Date and Time. This
opens the YaST Date and Time module, which requires root privileges. Enter the root password and
follow the instructions on the YaST pages.

The GStreamer Properties application lets you set which audio and video plug-ins you want to use

GStreamer Properties.
In most cases, you should use the default selections. However, if you want to select other plug-ins,
select the plug-in you want from the menus. The Audio tab lists the plug-ins for audio input and
output. The Video tab lists the video plug-ins.
Click Close when you are finished. The system is immediately configured to use the selected plug-
