Yes, you do not have VDPAU video output support enabled in your VLC build. You
may need a newer version (>= 0.6) of libvdpau and recent VLC master.

Please try again with latest Mesa, updated patches have been committed. I can
play high-bitrate 1080p files without any framedrops and reasonable CPU load
(~40-50%) on an E-450 now, even without VDPAU video output, which means that
the inefficient readback path is used. With VDPAU video output enabled on VLC
master, CPU usage is much lower.
