After you install the libva(-dev) from Splitted Desktop Systems (SDS), you have to rebuild VLC to get it working. I've created a PPA where this is already done: https://launchpad.net/~dtl131/+archive/catalysthacks
Currently, this PPA only has packages for Maverick. I will do Natty uploads when Natty gets closer to release. Note that the libva found in my PPA is actually the 0.31.x versions found on the SDS site. I simply reversioned it to supersede the default libva version number.
