# VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR - Structure specifying H.265 decode profile

## C Specification

A video profile supporting H.265 video decode operations is specified by setting VkVideoProfileInfoKHR::`videoCodecOperation` to VK_VIDEO_CODEC_OPERATION_DECODE_H265_BIT_KHR and adding a `VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR` structure to the VkVideoProfileInfoKHR::`pNext` chain.

The `VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_video_decode_h265
    typedef struct VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType           sType;
        const void*               pNext;
        StdVideoH265ProfileIdc    stdProfileIdc;
    } VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR;

## Members

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

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

- `stdProfileIdc` is a `StdVideoH265ProfileIdc` value specifying the H.265 codec profile IDC, as defined in section A.3 of the ITU-T H.265 Specification.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkVideoDecodeH265ProfileInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_DECODE_H265_PROFILE_INFO_KHR
