Hello Paulo,

Thanks for the srpm . I downloaded it yesterday , and built the rmps . 
The building went without any error , very happy with that . When I 
tried to i install on my centos 6 64 bit system , I got that same error 
again complaining about libnvcuvid.so .

error: Failed dependencies:
     libnvcuvid.so()(64bit) is needed by 
nvidia-graphics310.19-libs-310.19-151.el6.x86_64

I just had to force it in , with --nodeps option , so far seems to be 
working ok .


Best Regards
