Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear about my question. I understand that you can fetch the size by setting the data pointer to NULL, etc. The question is "is there way to fetch the number of memory planes a modifier uses without allocating memory?" My understanding is: 1. There is no fixed number of modifiers a driver can expose (this may be wrong, but seems to me it would be a strange limitation, and I don't see anything in the vk spec or drivers that indicat that this could be the case) 2. We don't know where in the modifier list the one we want info about is So therefore, we have to fetch the info for *all* modifiers, which as I understand it probably requires at least a slow path with an allocation for drivers that potentially have a lot of modifiers. If we're OK with a practical "we don't support drivers with more than X modifiers because we doubt it'll ever exist" then that's a valid answer as well. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
