I had similar problems after upgrading the NVidia packages. It turns out 
that I had old NVidia libraries sitting around.

To solve that
1. run "ldconfig -p | grep XvMC"
I had duplicate entries pointing to the different libraries and library 
versions (e.g. of  libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1)
2. delete duplicates (well the right ones, will you?)
3. run ldconfig
4. test setup again - my problems went away with this.
