I have yet to get my system ffmpeg vulkan video transcoding to work on
my machines, while benchmarking works.
Therefore I hope get verified if my code line is correct, and how to fix
possible syntax errors.

ah, syntax was slightly different, you apparently need to "link"
vulcan decode and filtering via common naming?
My line fails in similar way:
