I had same problem:
"Trying to open /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so" (returned -1)
I tryied to fix this
When I used:
"cd ~
sudo mkdir Builds
cd Builds
sudo apt-get build-dep libva1
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/vaapi/libva
cd libva
git checkout vaapi-ext
sudo ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
sudo make
sudo make install
cd.."
from
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/VAAPI
the vainfo now showes:
libva info: VA-API version 0.34.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_32
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
