But does it actually work? ;)
I am glad you asked :)
No, sorry - still no success with video transcoding using vulkan so
far ......
At least I have not found a ffmpeg code line that works, conversion
fails, similary for h264_vulkan and hevc_vulkan:
ffmpeg -hide_banner -hwaccel vulkan -i hdv09_04.m2t -c:v h264_vulkan
hdv09_04_h264_vulkan.mp4
..........
Impossible to convert between the formats supported by the filter
'Parsed_null_0' and the filter 'auto_scale_0'
Link 'Parsed_null_0.default' -> 'auto_scale_0.default':

Conversion failed!
My google-ai friend says:
/Input Format and Pixel Format:/
/The conversion failure often points to an incompatibility between the
input video's pixel format and what the Vulkan encoder expects or can
handle efficiently.
Experiment with different input pixel formats (e.g., yuv420p, nv12)
using the -pix_fmt option in FFmpeg.
Yes , FFmpeg's Vulkan components support the yuv420p pixel format.
Specifically, the scale_vulkan filter, used for hardware-accelerated
video processing via Vulkan, either defaults to or explicitly accepts
yuv420p as an output format. In fact, one report indicates it may not
accept other formats like nv12 when used in the format option,
suggesting yuv420p is a primary supported format for Vulkan operations
within FFmpeg.
yuv420p is the most widely supported and compatible pixel format for
H.264 video across almost all players and hardware decoders.
/Well, I've tried several ffmpeg code lines and -pix_fmt yub420p and
nv12, but so far I'm stock with the similar Conversion failures.
FFmpeg Vulkan Video Encoding is seemingly yet immature and experimental,
and for example not dealt with or updated in (Decoding only)
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/HWAccelIntro#Vulkan
Trying to check with ffmpeg, I get the impression that Vulkan only use
its own "vulkan" (RGBA?) pixel format and not nv12 or yuv420p
ffmpeg -hide_banner -pix_fmts | grep -i vulkan
..H.. vulkan 0 0 0
ffmpeg -hide_banner -h encoder=h264_vulkan | egrep -i 'pix|nv|yuv'
Supported pixel formats: vulkan
ffmpeg -hide_banner -h encoder=hevc_vulkan | egrep -i 'pix|nv|yuv'
Supported pixel formats: vulkan
