ethereum-opencl only supports the older wallets that used PBKDF2.  It
does not support the newer ones that use scrypt.  Moreover, GPUs aren't
expected to provide good speeds at scrypt with those parameters even if
such support is added.  See:

and earlier messages in that thread.

So continuing to use the CPU format is your best option.
