Is there a way to enable GPU support for ffmpeg workflows

[askb]

Is there a way to enable GPU support for FFmpeg processing that can potentially increase throughput and reduce CPU load? I've tested these by passing GPU flags and devices (/dev/dri/card1:/dev/dri/card0) through the Docker env which doesn't make any diff:

     - HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
      - HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0
      - ROCR_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0
      - HSA_ENABLE_SDMA=0

It's likely the version of ffmpeg being used isn't built to use GPU/vram.

its possible and we plan to add it, but it requires re-tooling of more than just settings -- you have to select special codecs too. we're working on it.

looking forward for the GPU version, Thank @stephengpope for this amazing tool.
