You can find most curent Fedora suppiled packages on:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/

type "libvpx" in the search box.

Dowload the version and arch you need.

Until Chromium gets updated.
rpm --force -ivh libvpx-0.9.7.1-1.fc16.x86_64.rpm

you then have two copies of libvpx installed.
The one for Chromium, the one for other recent apps.

Later on, when Chromium is updated.
you can get rid of the older libvpx with:
package-cleanup --cleandupes

YMMV
