NVDEC

NVDEC (formerly known as NVCUVID^[1]) is a feature in Nvidia graphics cards that performs video decoding, offloading this compute-intensive task from the CPU.^[2] NVDEC is a successor of PureVideo and is available in Kepler and later Nvidia GPUs.

It is accompanied by NVENC for video encoding in Nvidia's Video Codec SDK.^[2]
