It's not finding your vdpau headers did you install the nvidia drivers from a package or using the nvidia installer?

[Goga777]

I used nvidia installer
but xine-lib and mplayer compiled with vdpau support without any problem

If you're using Ubuntu, you need the libvdpau-dev package installed in order to have the headers to compile. Once you have the dev package installed, simply run make in the extracted folder and then run using ./vdpinfo
