I see there is no plugin for Nvidia Decoder, It would be great to have this
plugin for Gstreamer.

as of right now if you try to transcode something with NVidia's GPU you must
use CPU to decode, can't take advantage of GPU's decoder.

I see FFMPEG has it called "h264_cuvid" maybe a wrapper can be done for it to
save time and not develop it from scratch.

Or if it has to be done based on NVdecoder API here is a guide.
