VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR(3)

# VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR - Structure specifying VP9 decode profile

## C Specification

A video profile supporting VP9 video decode operations is specified by setting VkVideoProfileInfoKHR::`videoCodecOperation` to VK_VIDEO_CODEC_OPERATION_DECODE_VP9_BIT_KHR and adding a `VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR` structure to the VkVideoProfileInfoKHR::`pNext` chain.

The `VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_video_decode_vp9
    typedef struct VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType       sType;
        const void*           pNext;
        StdVideoVP9Profile    stdProfile;
    } VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR;

## Members

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

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

- `stdProfile` is a `StdVideoVP9Profile` value specifying the VP9 codec profile, as defined in section 7.2 of the VP9 Specification.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkVideoDecodeVP9ProfileInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_DECODE_VP9_PROFILE_INFO_KHR
