Sorry, you probably won't understand it this way.

Please do the following;

  1. $ sudo LANG=c zypper in avidemux3
       Problem: 1: nothing provides 'libvpx.so.11()(64bit)' needed by the to be
       installed avidemux3-2.8.1-1699.7.pm.31.x86_64
       Solution 1: do not install avidemux3-2.8.1-1699.7.pm.31.x86_64
       Solution 2: break avidemux3-2.8.1-1699.7.pm.31.x86_64 by
       ignoring some of its dependencies

      Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c/d/?](c):

      ※ Here, select 2.

   2. Install avidemux3-qt5 (and avidemux3-cli,too?)

   3. $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libvpx.so.12.1.0 /usr/lib64/libvpx.so.11

   3. then run avidemux3_qt5

Best Regards.
