The lavfi/v360 capability supports a subset of popular 360-degree video formats including fisheye and dual fisheye projections, offering more efficient processing compared to CPU-based conversion. This adds to FFmpeg's growing list of Vulkan-accelerated features, which already includes Apple ProRes video acceleration and FFV1 decode. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
