vlc_va_Setup() is working around a bug in libavcodec, whereby the 
dimension of the pictures were not provided in get_format(). I am not 
even sure if the bug still exists. Indeed, if vlc_va_Setup() fails, you 
are utterly _screwed_ - you will not get any picture buffers. 
vlc_va_Setup() is a bug in itself.
