@mattdm's answer is probably the way to go but if you want to you could try excluding those packages from being evaluated as part of the upgrade.

$ sudo yum -x ffmpeg-libs upgrade

From the yum man page:

-x, --exclude=package
      Exclude a specific package by name or glob from updates on all 
      repositories.  Configuration Option: exclude

The power of disablerepo & enablerepo

One of the less obvious things you can do with yum is play games with these to "dynamically" enable and disable various repos when running commands. To see it's effect I like to use yum's repolist command.

Example:

$ yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=*fusion-free-up* repolist|awk '{print $1}'|sed '1,3d;$d'
rpmfusion-free-updates
rpmfusion-free-updates-debuginfo
rpmfusion-free-updates-source
rpmfusion-free-updates-testing
rpmfusion-free-updates-testing-debuginfo
rpmfusion-free-updates-testing-source

Or you can purely disable multiple repos:

$ yum --disablerepo=*fusion* --disablerepo=*adobe* repolist|awk '{print $1}'|sed '1,3d;$d'
Dropbox
fedora
google-chrome
google-earth
google-talkplugin
lamolabs
lamolabs-noarch
nautilus-flickr-uploader
scootersoftware
updates
wuala

VLC Repositories?

In CentOS 6.x I'd be using the following repos to make use of VLC.

$ sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-7.noarch.rpm
$ sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm

$ sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/6/i386/rpmfusion-free-release-6-1.noarch.rpm
$ sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/6/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-6-1.noarch.rpm

Update to the latest VLC:

$ sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-test update vlc

Run the command with this: --disablerepo=*fusion*. This will temp. disable all the fusion repos. –  slm Aug 10 at 2:10

These packages aren't part of CentOS itself; I expect you got them from RPMFusion or another add-on repository.

The easiest approach is to temporarily remove the offending packages, do your upgrades, make sure your RPMFusion configuration is up-to-date, and then reinstall what you need.

@rajagenupula Yep. Seriously, yum remove vlc-core, and then put it back after upgrade. –  mattdm♦ Aug 10 at 2:26
