// Provided by VK_KHR_video_encode_queue
VkResult vkGetPhysicalDeviceVideoEncodeQualityLevelPropertiesKHR(
    VkPhysicalDevice                            physicalDevice,
    const VkPhysicalDeviceVideoEncodeQualityLevelInfoKHR* pQualityLevelInfo,
    VkVideoEncodeQualityLevelPropertiesKHR*     pQualityLevelProperties);
