I’ve always thought gpu/hardware accelerated encoding was the same thing and worse than software encoding quality wise but way way faster. Does that mean the gpu can software encode with vulkan support?

“Software encoding” is just kinda a colloquial term for running on the CPU. Because the alternative was dedicated hardware for the task.
As for the Vulcan part I have no clue how that works. Does vulkan have an Open equivalent or something?
