I’m building a professional camera app where users can customize the video recording format and color grading. In the func captureOutput(_ output: AVCaptureOutput, didOutput sampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer, from connection: AVCaptureConnection) method, I handle video frames and use Metal for real-time color grading. This works well when device.activeColorSpace is sRGB or P3, and the results are great. However, when the color space is HLG_BT2020 or appleLog, the MTKTextureLoader.newTexture(cgImage: cgImage, options: options) method throws an error. After researching, I found that the video frame in these color spaces has a bit-per-channel (bpc) greater than 8 after being converted to CGImage, causing the texture creation to fail. I tried converting the CGImage to a lower bpc to successfully create the texture, but the final output image is garbled and not as expected. Is there a solution to this issue?
