C Specification

A video profile supporting AV1 video encode operations is specified by setting VkVideoProfileInfoKHR::videoCodecOperation to VK_VIDEO_CODEC_OPERATION_ENCODE_AV1_BIT_KHR and adding a VkVideoEncodeAV1ProfileInfoKHR structure to the VkVideoProfileInfoKHR::pNext chain.

The VkVideoEncodeAV1ProfileInfoKHR structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_KHR_video_encode_av1
typedef struct VkVideoEncodeAV1ProfileInfoKHR {
    VkStructureType       sType;
    const void*           pNext;
    StdVideoAV1Profile    stdProfile;
} VkVideoEncodeAV1ProfileInfoKHR;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

  • stdProfile is a StdVideoAV1Profile value specifying the AV1 codec profile, as defined in section A.2 of the AV1 Specification.

Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkVideoEncodeAV1ProfileInfoKHR-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_ENCODE_AV1_PROFILE_INFO_KHR
