I do have the NVIDIA drivers installed. I was initially using 
kmod-nvidia, then tried installing from the nvidia package to see if 
that would make any difference and it did not. In fact when I tried to 
install the nvidia devel it installed the kmod-nvidia package again.
I am currently trying to figure out where to place the --disable-vdpau 
command in the spec file (my first few tries did not work) just to see 
if I can get a compile to complete.
I tried the following in the spec file
# --without nvidia Disable NVidia XvMC and VDPAU support
--without nvidia
I just added the --without nvidia below the comment line but it did not 
work. What is the correct method to remove the vdpau compile when using 
the spec file?

I am now getting the following error
