# vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR - End video coding scope

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To end a video coding scope, call:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_video_queue
    void vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR(
        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
        const VkVideoEndCodingInfoKHR*              pEndCodingInfo);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer in which to record the command.

- `pEndCodingInfo` is a pointer to a VkVideoEndCodingInfoKHR structure specifying the parameters for ending the video coding scope.

## Description

After ending a video coding scope, the video session object, the optional video session parameters object, and all reference picture resources previously bound by the corresponding vkCmdBeginVideoCodingKHR command are unbound.

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-None-07251
  There must be no active queries

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-commandBuffer-parameter
  `commandBuffer` must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-pEndCodingInfo-parameter
  `pEndCodingInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkVideoEndCodingInfoKHR structure

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-commandBuffer-recording
  `commandBuffer` must be in the recording state

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-commandBuffer-cmdpool
  The `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must support decode, or encode operations

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-renderpass
  This command must only be called outside of a render pass instance

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-videocoding
  This command must only be called inside of a video coding scope

- VUID-vkCmdEndVideoCodingKHR-bufferlevel
  `commandBuffer` must be a primary `VkCommandBuffer`

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `commandBuffer` must be externally synchronized

- Host access to the `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must be externally synchronized

Command Properties
