This has been reported as bug with Nvidia Cards on the AMD64 platform. You have two options.
1) Run Linux in 32 bit mode - the xvmc drivers work in 32bit mode. 2) Pester Nvidia for a new AMD64 driver.

At first, XvMC will fail, XVMC_DEBUG gives me an "Authentication Failed" error. If I keep re-trying mplayer, eventually XvMC will successfully start, and it will work with other apps after that until I reboot. I have seen other reports of this behavior, but no solutions..
