No, ATrpms has no XVMC support in any rpms. When I checked, whether I
could build with XVMC I only found a static (!) library from XFree86
for i810 and another (static!) from NVIDIA.
So it is currently not something a general purpose repo could
offer. Maybe specialized mplayer-i810 or mythtv-nvidia rpm could be
crafted, but I think it is not worth while.
I hope XVMC will get to common headers and shared libs eventually,
with a fallback lib like in the case of GL.
