It is not clear to me in what module you believe that MediaPortal is not using the NVidia decoder. Are you referring to My TV, or to My Videos?

In the case of My TV, MediaPortal will use the codec that you have selected in MP Configuration, in the Television section.

However, in the My Videos section, MediaPortal will use the codec that you have selected in MP Configuration (for Videos) except where the video format is not supported by the selected codec.

To ensure that nVidia is used most often, you also need to make sure that none of the other video decoders on you PC have a higher Merit than you have set for nVidia. For example, you will probably find that ffdshow has a higher merit?

Also, have a look at this (MPEG2) Codec Guide, for more information on codecs.
