VkDisplaySurfaceStereoTypeNV(3)

# VkDisplaySurfaceStereoTypeNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkDisplaySurfaceStereoTypeNV - 3D Stereo type

## C Specification

Possible values of VkDisplaySurfaceStereoCreateInfoNV::`stereoType`, specifying the type of 3D stereo presentation the display will be configured for, are:

    // Provided by VK_NV_display_stereo
    typedef enum VkDisplaySurfaceStereoTypeNV {
        VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_NONE_NV = 0,
        VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_ONBOARD_DIN_NV = 1,
        VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_HDMI_3D_NV = 2,
        VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_INBAND_DISPLAYPORT_NV = 3,
    } VkDisplaySurfaceStereoTypeNV;

## Description

- VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_NONE_NV specifies no configuration for stereo presentation. This is the default behavior if VkDisplaySurfaceStereoCreateInfoNV is not provided.

- VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_ONBOARD_DIN_NV specifies configuration for glasses that connect via a DIN connector on the back of the graphics card.

- VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_HDMI_3D_NV specifies configuration for HDMI 3D compatible display devices with their own stereo emitters. This is also known as HDMI Frame Packed Stereo, where the left and right eye images are stacked into a single frame with a doubled pixel clock and refresh rate.

- VK_DISPLAY_SURFACE_STEREO_TYPE_INBAND_DISPLAYPORT_NV specifies configuration for DisplayPort display devices with in-band stereo signaling and emitters.
