It should (barring the occasional bug in a driver version here or 
there).  I just named a few of the cards I've heard are using 
shaders--didn't mean the list to be all-inclusive.  Basically, XvMC's 
iDCT and MC are supported by the NVIDIA drivers on all GF4 MX and newer 
cards, and MC is supported on GF4 Ti (no iDCT).
