The one on [extra] hasn't VDPAU support enabled, I think. Install mplayer-vdpau-svn from AUR and use Smplayer (enable VDPAU in output driver).

$ mplayer -vo help -vc help | grep vdpau
    vdpau    VDPAU with X11
ffmpeg12vdpau ffmpeg    working   FFmpeg MPEG-1/2 (VDPAU)  [mpegvideo_vdpau]
ffwmv3vdpau ffmpeg    problems  FFmpeg WMV3/WMV9 (VDPAU)  [wmv3_vdpau]
ffvc1vdpau  ffmpeg    problems  FFmpeg WVC1 (VDPAU)  [vc1_vdpau]
ffh264vdpau ffmpeg    working   FFmpeg H.264 (VDPAU)  [h264_vdpau]

If there's no output, then you don't have it, and then you probably want to build mplayer-svn.

Re: How do I test if my mplayer has vdpau enabled?

The above command will tell you if it's enabled, but not show you if you're using it. If you run Mplayer from a terminal and use any supported video stream, you'll get an output something like this:
