Maybe give it a day and try again. Meanwhile yum --skip-broken could be your friend.

Looking at the raw output I'd say that this rpmforge (!) package relies on a library that will get removed if you install faad2 (e.g. because it is part of an earlier version of faad). In case you have disabled the rpmforge repo you may enable it and possibly get an update that fits to faad2. And to be sure that this is not just a problem in the yum index do "yum - -clean metadata". Then try the *full* update again, before you try atomic updates.
