I develop a application with an uvc camera, this camera is a webcam, I use the AVFoundation library ,but when I run the code "[self.mCaptureSession startRunning]" ,I can not get the buffer, I already set the delegate, any answer will help.

My app want Converting iphone12 HDR Video to SDR，to edit。 follow the doc Apple-HDR-Convert. My code setting the pixBuffAttributes        [pixBuffAttributes setObject:(id)(kCVImageBufferYCbCrMatrix_ITU_R_709_2) forKey:(id)kCVImageBufferYCbCrMatrixKey];       [pixBuffAttributes setObject:(id)(kCVImageBufferColorPrimaries_ITU_R_709_2) forKey:(id)kCVImageBufferColorPrimariesKey];       [pixBuffAttributes setObject:(id)kCVImageBufferTransferFunction_ITU_R_709_2 forKey:(id)kCVImageBufferTransferFunctionKey];       playerItemOutput = [[AVPlayerItemVideoOutput alloc] initWithPixelBufferAttributes:pixBuffAttributes]; but I get the playerItemOutput's output buffer   CFTypeRef colorAttachments = CVBufferGetAttachment(pixelBuffer, kCVImageBufferYCbCrMatrixKey, NULL);     CFTypeRef colorPrimaries = CVBufferGetAttachment(pixelBuffer, kCVImageBufferColorPrimariesKey, NULL);     CFTypeRef colorTransFunc = CVBufferGetAttachment(pixelBuffer, kCVImageBufferTransferFunctionKey, NULL);      NSLog(@"colorAttachments = %@", colorAttachments);     NSLog(@"colorPrimaries = %@", colorPrimaries);     NSLog(@"colorTransFunc = %@", colorTransFunc); log output: colorAttachments = ITU_R_2020 colorPrimaries = ITU_R_2020 colorTransFunc = ITU_R_2100_HLG pixBuffAttributes setting output format invalid，please help！

I'm using an AVAudioConverter object to decode an OPUS stream for VoIP. The decoding itself works well, however, whenever the stream stalls (no more audio packet is available to decode because of network instability) this can be heard in crackling / abrupt stop in decoded audio. OPUS can mitigate this by indicating packet loss by passing a null pointer in the C-library to int opus_decode_float (OpusDecoder * st, const unsigned char * data, opus_int32 len, float * pcm, int frame_size, int decode_fec), see https://opus-codec.org/docs/opus_api-1.2/group__opus__decoder.html#ga9c554b8c0214e24733a299fe53bb3bd2. However, with AVAudioConverter using Swift I'm constructing an AVAudioCompressedBuffer like so:         let compressedBuffer = AVAudioCompressedBuffer(             format: VoiceEncoder.Constants.networkFormat,             packetCapacity: 1,             maximumPacketSize: data.count         )         compressedBuffer.byteLength = UInt32(data.count)         compressedBuffer.packetCount = 1   compressedBuffer.packetDescriptions! .pointee.mDataByteSize = UInt32(data.count)         data.copyBytes(             to: compressedBuffer.data .assumingMemoryBound(to: UInt8.self),             count: data.count         ) where data: Data contains the raw OPUS frame to be decoded. How can I specify data loss in this context and cause the AVAudioConverter to output PCM data whenever no more input data is available? More context: I'm specifying the audio format like this:         static let frameSize: UInt32 = 960         static let sampleRate: Float64 = 48000.0         static var networkFormatStreamDescription = AudioStreamBasicDescription(             mSampleRate: sampleRate,             mFormatID: kAudioFormatOpus,             mFormatFlags: 0,             mBytesPerPacket: 0,             mFramesPerPacket: frameSize,             mBytesPerFrame: 0,             mChannelsPerFrame: 1,             mBitsPerChannel: 0,             mReserved: 0         )         static let networkFormat = AVAudioFormat( streamDescription: &networkFormatStreamDescription )! I've tried 1) setting byteLength and packetCount to zero and 2) returning nil but setting .haveData in the AVAudioConverterInputBlock I'm using with no success.

My current app implements a custom video player, based on a AVSampleBufferRenderSynchronizer synchronising two renderers: an AVSampleBufferDisplayLayer receiving decoded CVPixelBuffer-based video CMSampleBuffers, and an AVSampleBufferAudioRenderer receiving decoded lpcm-based audio CMSampleBuffers. The AVSampleBufferRenderSynchronizer is started when the first image (in presentation order) is decoded and enqueued, using avSynchronizer.setRate(_ rate: Float, time: CMTime), with rate = 1 and time the presentation timestamp of the first decoded image. Presentation timestamps of video and audio sample buffers are consistent, and on most streams, the audio and video are correctly synchronized. However on some network streams, on iOS, the audio and video aren't synchronized, with a time difference that seems to increase with time. On the other hand, with the same player code and network streams on macOS, the synchronization always works fine. This reminds me of something I've read, about cases where an AVSampleBufferRenderSynchronizer could not synchronize audio and video, causing them to run with independent and potentially drifting clocks, but I cannot find it again. So, any help / hints on this sync problem will be greatly appreciated! :)

I want the audio session to always use the built-in microphone. However, when using the setPreferredInput() method like in this example private func enableBuiltInMic() { // Get the shared audio session. let session = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance() // Find the built-in microphone input. guard let availableInputs = session.availableInputs, let builtInMicInput = availableInputs.first(where: { $0.portType == .builtInMic }) else { print("The device must have a built-in microphone.") return } // Make the built-in microphone input the preferred input. do { try session.setPreferredInput(builtInMicInput) } catch { print("Unable to set the built-in mic as the preferred input.") } } and calling that function once in the initializer, the audio session still switches to the external microphone once one is plugged in. The session's preferredInput is nil again at that point, even if the built-in microphone is still listed in availableInputs. So, why is the preferredInput suddenly reset? when would be the appropriate time to set the preferredInput again? Observing the session’s availableInputs did not work and setting the preferredInput again in the routeChangeNotification handler seems a bad choice as it’s already a bit too late then.

Dear Sirs, I'd like to add an icon to my audio driver based on AudioDriverKit. This icon should show up left of my audio device in the audio devices dialog. For an Audio Server Plugin I managed to do this using the property kAudioDevicePropertyIcon and CFBundleCopyResourceURL(...) but how would you do this with AudioDriverKit? Should I use IOUserAudioCustomProperty or IOUserAudioControl and how would I refer to the Bundle? Is there an example available somewhere? Thanks and best regards, Johannes

Hi, I am creating an app that can include videos or images in it's data. While @Attribute(.externalStorage) helps with images, with AVAssets I actually would like access to the URL behind that data. (as it would be stupid to load and then save the data again just to have a URL) One key component is to keep all of this clean enough so that I can use (private) CloudKit syncing with the resulting model. All the best Christoph

Hello, Starting in iOS 17, our application started having some issue publishing to our video session. More specifically the video capture seems to be broken in some, but not all sessions. What's troubling is that we're seeing that it fails consistently every 4 sessions. It also fails silently, without reporting any problems to the app. We only notice that there are no frames being rendered or sent to the remote devices. Here's what shows-up in the console: <<<< FigCaptureSourceRemote >>>> Fig assert: "! storage->connectionDied" at bail (FigCaptureSourceRemote.m:235) - (err=0) <<<< FigCaptureSourceRemote >>>> Fig assert: "err == 0 " at bail (FigCaptureSourceRemote.m:253) - (err=-16453) Anyone seeing this? Any idea what could be the cause? Our sessions work perfectly on iOS16 and below. Thanks

My app uses the AVFoundation to pronounce some words. Running the app from Xcode, either to a simulator or device, I frequently get this crash at start-up: AXSpeech (13): EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=EXC_I386_GPFLT). It seems to occur randomly, maybe 20%-30% of the time I launch the app. When it does not crash, using audio works as expected. When launched from the device, it never crashes (so far, at least). Here's the code that outputs speech: Declared at the top level of the View struct: @State var synth = AVSpeechSynthesizer() In the View, as part of a Button's action closure: let utterance = AVSpeechUtterance(string: answer) utterance.voice = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice(language: "en_US") synth.speak(utterance) Any idea on how to stop this? It's annoying having to launch the app multiple times to test on a simulator or device.

I have a PCM audio buffer (AVAudioPCMFormatInt16). When I try to play it using AVPlayerNode / AVAudioEngine an exception is thrown: "[[busArray objectAtIndexedSubscript:(NSUInteger)element] setFormat:format error:&nsErr]: returned false, error Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-10868 (related thread https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/700497?answerId=780530022#780530022) If I convert the buffer to AVAudioPCMFormatFloat32 playback works. My questions are: Does AVAudioEngine / AVPlayerNode require AVAudioPCMBuffer to be in the Float32 format? Is there a way I can configure it to accept another format instead for my application? If 1 is YES is this documented anywhere? If 1 is YES is this required format subject to change at any point? Thanks! I was looking to watch the "AVAudioEngine in Practice" session video from WWDC 2014 but I can't find it anywhere (https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/747008).

Is it possible to find IDR frame (CMSampleBuffer) in AVAsset h264 video file?

Hello, I have an iOS app that is recording audio that is working fine on iPads/iPhones. It asks for microphone permission and after that recording works. I installed the same app on my M3 MacBook via TestFlight since iPad apps are supposed to work without a change that way. The app starts fine and everything, but it never asks for Microphone permission, so I can't record. Do I need to do something to make this happen (this is not macCatalyst, its running the arm64 iPhone binary on macOS) thanks

Hi, I am getting into a trap. Please check stack-trace, howto fix this? regards, Joël stack-trace with ExtAudioFileWrite

Is there any feasible way to get a Core Audio device's system effect status (Voice Isolation, Wide Spectrum)? AVCaptureDevice provides convenience properties for system effects for video devices. I need to get this status for Core Audio input devices.

AVAudioFormat has no Swift concurrency annotations but the documentation states "Instances of this class are immutable." This made me always assume it was safe to pass AVAudioFormat instances around. Is this the case? If so can it be marked as Sendable? Am I missing something?

Here is the demo from Apple's site This issues is specific to iOS 18. When running this demo, we are getting new text when we have a gap in speaking, the recognitionTask(with:resultHandler:) provides new text which is only spoken after the gap and not the concatenation of old text and the new spoken text.

I'd like to find out: Can backgrounded apps record audio? In the past as I recall, I found that backgrounded apps were pretty restricted and couldn't do much of anything. However I'm not familiar with the current state of affairs. With iOS 15.8 and above, can backgrounded apps record audio if they've been given permission by the user to access the microphone? Thanks.

I am having issues deploying my iOS app, that uses ShazamKit, to get working on a Mac with Apple silicon. When uploading the archive to App Store Connect I do get ITMS-90863: Macs with Apple silicon support issue - The app links with libraries that aren’t present in macOS: /usr/lib/swift/libswiftShazamKit.dylib Is ShazamKit not supported for iOS apps that can run on Macs with Apple silicon? Or is there something I should fix in my setup / deployment?

I'm encountering errors while using AVAudioEngine with voice processing enabled (setVoiceProcessingEnabled(true)) in scenarios where the input and output audio devices are not the same. This issue arises specifically with mismatched devices, preventing the application from functioning as expected. Works: Paired devices (e.g., MacBook Pro mic → MacBook Pro speakers) Fails: Mismatched devices (e.g., AirPods mic → MacBook Pro speakers) When using paired input and output devices: The setup works as expected. Example: MacBook Pro microphone → MacBook Pro speakers. When using mismatched devices: AVAudioEngine setup fails during aggregate device construction. Example: AirPods microphone → MacBook Pro speakers. Error logs indicate a channel count mismatch. Here are the partial logs. Due to the content limit, I cannot post the entire logs. AUVPAggregate.cpp:1000 client-side input and output formats do not match (err=-10875) AUVPAggregate.cpp:1036 err=-10875 AVAEInternal.h:109 [AVAudioEngineGraph.mm:1344:Initialize: (err = PerformCommand(*outputNode, kAUInitialize, NULL, 0)): error -10875 AggregateDevice.mm:329 Failed expectation of constructed aggregate (312): mInput.streamChannelCounts == inputStreamChannelCounts AggregateDevice.mm:331 Failed expectation of constructed aggregate (312): mInput.totalChannelCount == std::accumulate(inputStreamChannelCounts.begin(), inputStreamChannelCounts.end(), 0U) AggregateDevice.mm:182 error fetching default pair AggregateDevice.mm:329 Failed expectation of constructed aggregate (336): mInput.streamChannelCounts == inputStreamChannelCounts AggregateDevice.mm:331 Failed expectation of constructed aggregate (336): mInput.totalChannelCount == std::accumulate(inputStreamChannelCounts.begin(), inputStreamChannelCounts.end(), 0U) AUHAL.cpp:1782 ca_verify_noerr: [AudioDeviceSetProperty(mDeviceID, NULL, 0, isInput, kAudioDevicePropertyIOProcStreamUsage, theSize, theStreamUsage), 560227702] AudioHardware-mac-imp.cpp:3484 AudioDeviceSetProperty: no device with given ID AUHAL.cpp:1782 ca_verify_noerr: [AudioDeviceSetProperty(mDeviceID, NULL, 0, isInput, kAudioDevicePropertyIOProcStreamUsage, theSize, theStreamUsage), 560227702] AggregateDevice.mm:182 error fetching default pair AggregateDevice.mm:329 Failed expectation of constructed aggregate (348): mInput.streamChannelCounts == inputStreamChannelCounts AggregateDevice.mm:331 Failed expectation of constructed aggregate (348): mInput.totalChannelCount == std::accumulate(inputStreamChannelCounts.begin(), inputStreamChannelCounts.end(), 0U) Is it possible to use voice processing with different input/output devices? If yes, are there any specific configurations required to handle mismatched devices? How can we resolve channel count mismatch errors during aggregate device construction? Are there settings or API adjustments to enforce compatibility between input/output devices? Are there any workarounds or alternative approaches to achieve voice processing functionality with mismatched devices? For instance, can we force an intermediate channel configuration or downmix input/output formats?
