In particular, does this mean that the VCs get correspondingly less equity?

Not necessarily. The company could have been revalued in the process (since the market prospects clearly changed).

To some extent, this might be a deal for Viddy (aka as good as it gets). If the investors are in control of the company, they could have just closed the shop and returned all the funds.
