Ok. You should then be sure that libVLC will use GPU for video codec.
This link could be helpful:

You'll likely need to install some Ubuntu packages (if you didn't yet), in
order for video accel to happen, using vdpau. You'll need to install them with
something like:
   $ sudo apt install mesa-vdpau-drivers vdpau-driver-all

VLC version 2.2 and upper should use it automatically. Ubuntu 17.10 comes with
vlc 3.0-git. So, it should automatically detect it.

Eventually, you might need to install the nvidia proprietary driver.
personally, I don't like it. I stopped using it (and nvidia boards) years ago,
because it used to be painful to make it work right. So, if I were you, I would
try to make it work with the opensource nouveau driver first.

Just call:
    $ kaffeine --debug
