Can I use this for hardware-accelerated encoding?

It provides foundational syntax for NVENC, QSV, AMF, and Vulkan acceleration, helping you leverage your GPU for faster processing.

How does it handle Windows file paths?

The skill follows mandatory requirements to use backslashes (\) for all file paths on Windows to ensure command-line compatibility.

Does this skill support the latest FFmpeg 8.0 features?

Yes, it is specifically updated for FFmpeg 8.0.1 (released November 2025), including the Whisper AI filters, Vulkan compute codecs, and APV support.

Does it support H.266/VVC?

Yes, it includes decoding and encoding guidance for the VVC standard using the latest stable libraries available in the 2025 releases.

Is it helpful for audio-only tasks?

Absolutely. It includes optimized recipes for audio extraction, volume adjustment, and EBU R128 loudness normalization.
