### AI overview

This article explains how FFmpeg uses Vulkan Compute shaders to accelerate encoding and decoding of professional-grade video on consumer GPUs. It describes the parallel and serial stages of codec pipelines and how this approach complements Vulkan Video's fixed-function support.

### Source excerpt

In this blog we explore how FFmpeg uses Vulkan Compute to seamlessly accelerate encoding and decoding of even professional-grade video on consumer GPUs -- unlocking GPU compute parallelism at scale, without specialized hardware. This approach complements Vulkan Video's fixed-function codec support, extending acceleration to formats and workflows it doesn't cover.
