We are working on Linux version. Before I started FFmpeg integration 
I convinced the management to allocate resources.
It will come in two phases: 
1. AMF via Vulkan on Windows
2. AMF via Vulkan on Linux
I think as a side affect we can help integrate Vulkan acceleration to FFmpeg. 
It is much better then OpenCL for multimedia from performance perspective.

Thank,
