Hello.
After carrying out "Codec Installation with 1-Click" on 13. Multimedia Codecs - Install Support For MP3, DVD, WMA, WMV, MOV etc.
I seem to have gotten duplicate/superfluous repositories (see below).

(1) Just for my understanding, what consequence does this have?
I take it 2 and 3 (pointing to the same url) duplicates is harmless except for it being a bit wasteful (same repository searched twice)?
1 and 5 being (supposed to be) apparently the "same" repro at different urls is more puzzling. Would yast/zypper prefer one to the other if/when it finds the same package in both?
Can I influence this..just make the priority of one higher than the other?
Or would it realise the packages found are the same and check a version number and pick the newest when updating?

(2) I suppose since theyre obviously (supposed to be) duplicates I should just delete one of 2/3 and 1/5
Which? Presumably 1 and 5 were in the opensuse 12.2 installation (I dont remember entering the urls manually) . This seems to make
13. Multimedia Codecs - Install Support For MP3, DVD, WMA, WMV, MOV etc. redundant now?

Thanks in Advance.
