Due to the release of ProMotion devices, the system may switch frame rates in certain scenarios, resulting in the loss of reference value for data collected through CADisplayLink callbacks at a fixed 60Hz frame rate. We cannot distinguish whether the slow callback of CADisplayLink is due to a stutter or a system switch in frame rate. I know Hitch Time Ratio, but I can't use this scheme for some reasons. How can I distinguish between stuck and frame rate gear shift in CADisplaylink callback? In iOS 15, CADisplayLink.preferredFrameRateRange.preferred always returns 0, while minimum and maximum do change. Can I use these minimum and maximum range values as criteria to distinguish between frame rate switching and stuttering?

What is Game Mode? Game Mode optimizes your gaming experience by giving your game the highest priority access to your CPU and GPU, lowering usage for background tasks. And it doubles the Bluetooth sampling rate, which reduces input latency and audio latency for wireless accessories like game controllers and AirPods. See Use Game Mode on Mac See Port advanced games to Apple platforms How can I enable Game Mode in my game? Add the Supports Game Mode property (GCSupportsGameMode) to your game’s Info.plist and set to true Correctly identify your game’s Application Category with LSApplicationCategoryType (also Info.plist) Note: Enabling Game Mode makes your game eligible but is not a guarantee; the OS decides if it is ok to enable Game Mode at runtime An app that enables Game Mode but isn’t a game will be rejected by App Review. How can I disable Game Mode? Set GCSupportsGameMode to false. Note: On Mac Game Mode is automatically disabled if the game isn’t running full screen.

So I get JPEG data in my app. Previously I was using the higher level NSBitmapImageRep API and just feeding the JPEG data to it. But now I've noticed on Sonoma If I get a JPEG in the CMYK color space the NSBitmapImageRep renders mostly black and is corrupted. So I'm trying to drop down to the lower level APIs. Specifically I grab a CGImageRef and and trying to use the Accelerate API to convert it to another format (to hopefully workaround the issue... CGImageRef sourceCGImage = `CGImageCreateWithJPEGDataProvider(jpegDataProvider,` NULL, shouldInterpolate, kCGRenderingIntentDefault); Now I use vImageConverter_CreateWithCGImageFormat... with the following values for source and destination formats: Source format: (derived from sourceCGImage) bitsPerComponent = 8 bitsPerPixel = 32 colorSpace = (kCGColorSpaceICCBased; kCGColorSpaceModelCMYK; Generic CMYK Profile) bitmapInfo = kCGBitmapByteOrderDefault version = 0 decode = 0x000060000147f780 renderingIntent = kCGRenderingIntentDefault Destination format: bitsPerComponent = 8 bitsPerPixel = 24 colorSpace = (DeviceRBG) bitmapInfo = 8197 version = 0 decode = 0x0000000000000000 renderingIntent = kCGRenderingIntentDefault But vImageConverter_CreateWithCGImageFormat fails with kvImageInvalidImageFormat. Now if I change the destination format to use 32 bitsPerpixel and use alpha in the bitmap info the vImageConverter_CreateWithCGImageFormat does not return an error but I get a black image just like NSBitmapImageRep

Does anyone know if we will be able to airplay content from another Apple device, say an iPad or iPhone to the Vision Pro?

I am currently developing a mobile and server-side application using the new ObjectCaptureSession on iOS and PhotogrammetrySession on MacOS. I have two questions regarding the newly updated APIs. From WWDC23 session: "Meet Object Capture for iOS", I know that the Object Capture API uses Point Cloud data captured from iPhone LiDAR sensor. I want to know how to use the Point Cloud data captured on iPhone ObjectCaptureSession and use it to create 3D models on PhotogrammetrySession on MacOS. From the example code from WWDC21, I know that the PhotogrammetrySession utilizes depth map from captured photo images by embedding it into the HEIC image and use those data to create a 3D asset on PhotogrammetrySession on MacOS. I would like to know if Point Cloud data is also embedded into the image to be used during 3D reconstruction and if not, how else the Point Cloud data is inserted to be used during reconstruction. Another question is, I know that Point Cloud data is returned as a result from request to the PhtogrammetrySession.Request. I would like to know if this PointCloud data is the same set of data captured during ObjectCaptureSession from WWDC23 that is used to create ObjectCapturePointCloudView. Thank you to everyone for the help in advance. It's a real pleasure to be developing with all the updates to RealityKit and the Object Capture API.

I have a model that uses a video material as the surface shader and I need to also use a geometry modifier on the material. This seemed like it would be promising (adapted from https://developer.apple.com/wwdc21/10075 ~5m 50s). // Did the setup for the video and AVPlayer eventually leading me to let videoMaterial = VideoMaterial(avPlayer: avPlayer) // Assign the material to the entity entity.model!.materials = [videoMaterial] // The part shown in WWDC: Set up the library and geometry modifier before, so now try to map the new custom material to the video material entity.model!.materials = entity.model!.materials.map { baseMaterial in       try! CustomMaterial(from: baseMaterial, geometryModifier: geometryModifier)     } But, I get the following error Thread 1: Fatal error: 'try!' expression unexpectedly raised an error: RealityFoundation.CustomMaterialError.defaultSurfaceShaderForMaterialNotFound How can I apply a geometry modifier to a VideoMaterial? Or, if I can't do that, is there an easy way to route the AVPlayer video data into the baseColor of CustomMaterial?

Is it possible to start screen recording (through Control Center) without user prompt? I mean to ask user permission for the first time and after that to start and stop recording programmatically only? I need to record screen only for specific events.
