Microsofts new built-in Mpeg Decoder?

Quite pleased with the playback from DVD/TV in Vista Media Centre - I haven't
needed to make any refresh rate adjustments etc and I've noticed improvements
in picture quality - very smooth!

However, is there or will there be an option for hardware acceleration?
It's a shame to let my geforce 7800 sit idle when it could be doing most of
the work. I can't see any option for hardware acceleration in the advanced
menu of WMP10.

Presumably, Nvidia will be coming up with a new purevideo decoder to take
pressure off the CPU?
