Not exactly.  VDPAU is an API.  It does not address specific
capability.  Some graphics cards are not capable (too slow,
too few shaders, whatever) to implement the desired functionality
(motion compensated de-interlacing).  It should be noted that
nvidia has "extended and enhanced" their hardware from time
to time.  I believe the feature set level is now up to "F" (from "A").
