Hi Yeechang

First of all,many thanks for this. I've been wanting to try out vdpau 
for a while,  but dont have the time to deal with compiling.

My first brief test has been unsuccessful however. I'm running on F10 
x86_64, using the 180.29 driver from atrpms. Hardware is a 8300 
motherboard gpu.

The error I'm getting is:

VideoOutputXv: Desired video renderer 'vdpau' not available.
                        codec 'H.264' makes 'opengl,xv-blit,xshm,xlib,' 
available, using 'opengl' instead.


I know vdpau works on this machine, as I've been running mplayer-vdpau 
with great results for weeks now

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Duncan
