Bug#586016: libva1: Unable to play certain files in VLC since upgrade of libva1

[D S McNeill]

Package: libva1
Version: 1.0.1-3
Severity: important

Since upgrading to libva1_1.0.1-3_amd64 from
libva1_0.31.0-0.0+sds12_amd64, I am no longer able to play flv or mp4
files in VLC. I have downgraded back to libva1_0.31.0-0.0+sds12_amd64
using "dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archive/libva1_0.31.0-0.0+sds12_amd64.deb",
and it appears to work fine with the older version.

I am no longer able to play flv's at all in VLC. With mp4 files, it
can only play the sound, but I get the following error, and no video
output:

"No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video
format "avc1". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this."
