Error: Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

• Open Edit -> Preferences or just press CTRL + P
• That will open up the preferences and select the “Player” tab
• Select (or enter) “xv” (without quotes) for the Video Output
• Close preferences and try to open the video file again.

Now Your problem should have been fixed.
