nothing to do with each other.
one taps into the video stream decoding on the card (vdpau).
other allows general purpose code execution on gpu (cuda)

vdpau is just as closed as dxva. "open" (documented) api, closed backend

yes, if a patch is submitted of course it will. not sure what gave you any other idea (my personal opinions perhaps?)

despite i'am a linux newbee user, i have recompiled mplayer with the last driver from nvidia ( 180.29 ) and the last patch for mplayer (mplayer-vdpau-3482714.tar.bz2)
So i have running the killa sample (3s before it crashes).
the CPU seems go up to 27-30 % on the AMD64 3200+ and a 9500GT & animation seems smooth
with the classic player, le CPU is overloaded and animation with frame low.
I will take a look to errors but i'am not a specialist of that type a things.
