Reply to How do I have the NSToolbar "floating" on top of content scrollview on macOS Tahoe?

Maybe you need to set the window style to NSWindowStyleMaskFullSizeContentView.

Reply to Why is my YCbCr to sRGB camera pipeline brighter Than Preview Layer? (420YpCbCr8BiPlanarFullRange, AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer)

I guess you have to use Bt. 1886 instead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITU-R_BT.1886

Reply to Why isn't Liquid Glass effect applied when using pyobjc?

There is no magic, macOS just checks which version of the SDK was used when compiling the app, if the SDK version is 26 or higher, it will make it go through the new UI path, if not it will get the previous UI. I don't know how the Python bridge works, but it clearly needs to be updated or recompiled with the new SDK.

Reply to CoreVideo + Rosetta still clamps at 60Hz (since macOS 12)

There will be no Rosetta for normal apps in the next major release, so I guess it will be technically fixed then 🤷‍♂️

Reply to Will OpenGL API and Drivers be removed after appleOS 26?

Apple made no announcement about the removal of OpenGL, so no, it won't be removed in version 26 of Apple operating systems. And for the future, there is no way to know until they say something.

Reply to Xcode sandboxing: how to allow Documents folder access?

Show an NSOpenPanel, and ask the user to open the Documents folder, then store the security scoped bookmark. Anyway, please don't litter the Documents folder with unwanted things.

Reply to Save MPEG-TS (h264 or HEVC) video stream using AVAssetWriter.

Do you set the CMSampleBuffer kCMSampleBufferAttachmentKey* keys for keyframes? I don't think AVAssetWriter will scan the bitstream for that info, it's something you will have to provide yourself.

As the text on that sheet says, the option is only the apps listed there. Maybe it will be expanded to third party apps in the future, who knows.
