## Name

VkVideoEncodeH264SessionParametersGetInfoKHR - Structure specifying parameters for retrieving encoded H.264 parameter set data

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkVideoEncodeH264SessionParametersGetInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_video_encode_h264
    typedef struct VkVideoEncodeH264SessionParametersGetInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        const void*        pNext;
        VkBool32           writeStdSPS;
        VkBool32           writeStdPPS;
        uint32_t           stdSPSId;
        uint32_t           stdPPSId;
    } VkVideoEncodeH264SessionParametersGetInfoKHR;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `writeStdSPS` indicates whether the encoded H.264 sequence parameter set identified by `stdSPSId` is requested to be retrieved.

- `writeStdPPS` indicates whether the encoded H.264 picture parameter set identified by the pair constructed from `stdSPSId` and `stdPPSId` is requested to be retrieved.

- `stdSPSId` specifies the H.264 sequence parameter set ID used to identify the retrieved H.264 sequence and/or picture parameter set(s).

- `stdPPSId` specifies the H.264 picture parameter set ID used to identify the retrieved H.264 picture parameter set when `writeStdPPS` is VK_TRUE.

## Description

When this structure is specified in the `pNext` chain of the VkVideoEncodeSessionParametersGetInfoKHR structure passed to vkGetEncodedVideoSessionParametersKHR, the command will write encoded parameter data to the output buffer in the following order:

1. The H.264 sequence parameter set identified by `stdSPSId`, if `writeStdSPS` is VK_TRUE.

2. The H.264 picture parameter set identified by the pair constructed from `stdSPSId` and `stdPPSId`, if `writeStdPPS` is VK_TRUE.

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkVideoEncodeH264SessionParametersGetInfoKHR-writeStdSPS-08279
  At least one of `writeStdSPS` and `writeStdPPS` must be VK_TRUE

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkVideoEncodeH264SessionParametersGetInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_ENCODE_H264_SESSION_PARAMETERS_GET_INFO_KHR
