I have been trying to capture frames from front camera and present it on the view. Here is my code
_session = [[AVCaptureSession alloc] init];
_session.sessionPreset = AVCaptureSessionPreset640x480;
AVCaptureDevice *device = [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo];
NSError *error = nil;
AVCaptureDeviceInput *deviceInput = [[AVCaptureDeviceInput alloc] initWithDevice:device error:&error];
if (deviceInput) {
[_session addInput:deviceInput];
}
else {
DDLogInfo(@"Some wierd shit happened");
return;
}
// Session output
/*
AVCaptureMetadataOutput *output = [[AVCaptureMetadataOutput alloc] init];
[output setMetadataObjectsDelegate:self queue:dispatch_get_main_queue()];
[_session addOutput:output];
output.metadataObjectTypes = @[AVMetadataObjectTypeFace];
AVCaptureConnection *connection = [output connectionWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeMetadata];
connection.videoOrientation = AVCaptureVideoOrientationLandscapeLeft;
*/
// Session output
AVCaptureMovieFileOutput *videoOutput = [[AVCaptureMovieFileOutput alloc] init];
[_session addOutput:videoOutput];
AVCaptureConnection *connection = [videoOutput connectionWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo];
connection.videoOrientation = AVCaptureVideoOrientationPortrait;
// Preview layer
_previewLayer = [AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer layerWithSession:_session];
_previewLayer.videoGravity = AVLayerVideoGravityResizeAspectFill;
_previewLayer.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.middleView.frame.size.width, self.middleView.frame.size.height);
[self.middleView.layer addSublayer:_previewLayer];
[_session startRunning];
Problem with this is, when my iPad is landscape, the images on presentation layer are rotated 90 degrees. How do i fix this? I have been browsing stack overflow, trying to do something with AVCaptureConnection
, but alas to no avail.
