Hi , For our application's usecase, we need to remove autofocus completely. we dont need autofocus at all. is there anyway to remove or disable autofocus completely in the iOS applications?

I am creating an locked camera capture extension that allows you to take a video with an overlay image on top of it. I'm using AVMutableComposition in order to achieve that. It works perfect in my main app, but when initializing AVMutableComposition in the locked camera extension it always returns nil. Is this expected?

In my project I’m using AVCaptureMultiCamSession where main camera device type is .builtInWideAngleCamera and second one is .builtInUltraWideCamera. Backend team requires to send them following data: • Intrinsic Matrix of each camera (3x3 matrix). • Possibly accessible Distortion coefficients (not lensDistortionLookupTable). So my questions are: ⁃ is it possible to retrieve intrinsicMatrix for both builtInWideAngleCamera and builtInUltraWideCamera during AVCaptureMultiCamSession? ⁃ is there a way to get distortion coefficient (not lensDistortionLookupTable) for both builtInWideAngleCamera and builtInUltraWideCamera during AVCaptureMultiCamSession?

Does anyone know which control is used to automatically recognize objects in photos and achieve the function of cutout by right-clicking the mouse?

I am building a LockedCameraCaptureExtension for my app. The example code works as expected. I am now in the process of porting my existing camera UI to the LockedCameraCaptureExtension. Currently, my custom UI is shown for a split second when I tap the control to open the LockedCameraCaptureExtension but it quickly exits back into Lock Screen. I assume my ported UI is doing something wrong. What is the recommended way to debug a LockedCameraCaptureExtension? I can't get my break points to break and os_log does not seem to log anything to Console.

Dear Experts, In "limited access" photos mode, I present a PHPickerViewController. It shows the entire photo library, with a note at the top saying that the app can only access the items that I select. I select a photo. In the delegate method, I get a PHPickerResult containing a plausible-looking string for the assetIdentifier. It's the same string that I get for that photo in "full access" mode. Should this photo now be accessible, or do I need to do something else at this point? When I call fetchAssetsWithLocalIdentifiers using this assetIdentifier, I get no results. When I call cloudIdentifierMappingsForLocalIdentifiers, I get error PHPhotosErrorIdentifierNotFound. In "full access" mode, both work OK. What am I missing? Thanks.

有人知道这个鼠标点击右键自动识别照片中的对象然后可以实现抠图的功能用的是哪个控件吗？

手机系统相册中有个长按识别对象的功能，这个功能在苹果开发中叫做什么，我应该使用哪个控件才能拥有这个功能？

There is a long press recognition feature in the photo album of the mobile phone system. What is this feature called in Apple development, and which control should I use to have this feature?

I was taking some photos of the Milky Way while using a tripod and the stars seemed to not be in focus. I tried plenty of times to get stars in focus. I switched to other apps that have a manual focus and the problem was resolved however the results weren’t as clear as the standard app would have been. I then tried again with the standard app but while focusing on an outdoor camera on our house and yet the camera would still not focus no matter how much I tried. I’m not sure if it is a bug with the iOS 18 developer beta. Either way I figured it was best to post something I had realized. Apple please add a manual focus option.

I have the following code: extension AssetGridViewController: PHPhotoLibraryChangeObserver { func photoLibraryDidChange(_ changeInstance: PHChange) { Task { @MainActor in guard let changes = changeInstance.changeDetails(for: fetchResult) else { return } fetchResult = changes.fetchResultAfterChanges } } } With Swift 6, this generates a compilation error: Main actor-isolated instance method 'photoLibraryDidChange' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated protocol requirement. The error includes to fix-it suggestions: Adding nonisolated to the function (nonisolated func photoLibraryDidChange(_ changeInstance: PHChange)) Adding @preconcurrency to the protocol conformance (extension AssetGridViewController: @preconcurrency PHPhotoLibraryChangeObserver {) Both options generate a runtime error: EXC_BREAKPOINT (code=1, subcode=0x105b7c400). For context, AssetGridViewController is a regular UIViewController. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I am working on an iOS application using SwiftUI where I want to convert a JPG and a MOV file to a live photo. I am utilizing the LivePhoto Class from Github for this. The JPG and MOV files are displayed correctly in my WallpaperDetailView, but I am facing issues when trying to download the live photo to the gallery and generate the Live Photo. Here is the relevant code and the errors I am encountering: Console prints: Play button should be visible Image URL fetched and set: Optional("https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/...")

Hi, I would like to ask your advice with our IOS app, which has a problem with the Iphone 14 pro & Iphone 15 pro model camera focusing on close objects. The game is made with Unity and the idea is that kids can scan random QR - and barcodes to catch monsters. With Iphone the no pro models focus and read the barcodes well, but new models with three back camera systems our app does not focus on close, that makes the barcode reading hard. Somehow it seems that the Iphone pro model is not changing the camera lens to close focusing one in a third party app like it does when you use the camera itself. Do you have any advice on how to solve the focusing problem? I appreciate your help!

Following Metadata should be accessible from PHAsset Object: Title, caption, Keywords. Write now they are available in the SQLite Photo Library, but thats is not a clean solution.

Hi, I'm looking to update the metadata properties of a DNG image stored on disc, saving to a new file. Using ImageIO's CGImageSource and CGImageDestination classes, I run into a problem where by the destination doesn't support the type of the source. For example: let imageSourceOptions = [kCGImageSourceShouldCache: false] as CFDictionary if let cgImageSource = CGImageSourceCreateWithURL(sourceURL as CFURL, imageSourceOptions), let type = CGImageSourceGetType(cgImageSource) { guard let imageDestination = CGImageDestinationCreateWithURL(destinationURL as CFURL, type, 1, nil) else { fatalError("Unable to create image destination") } // Code to update properties and write out to destination url } } When this code is executed I get the following errors on the command line when trying to create the destination: 2024-06-30 11:52:25.531530+0100 ABC[7564:273101] [ABC] findWriterForTypeAndAlternateType:119: *** ERROR: unsupported output file format 'com.adobe.raw-image' 2024-06-30 11:52:25.531661+0100 ABC[7564:273101] [ABC] CGImageDestinationCreateWithURL:4429: *** ERROR: CGImageDestinationCreateWithURL: failed to create 'CGImageDestinationRef' I don't see a way to create a destination directly from a source? Yes, the code works for say a JPEG file but I want it to work for any image format that CGImageSource can work with?

Hey! I'm working on a camera app and I've noticed that the .builtInTripleCamera doesn't behave anything like the native app. Tested on iPhone 15 Pro Max and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The documentation states the following, but that seems quite different from what is happening in the app: Automatic switching from one camera to another occurs when the zoom factor, light level, and focus position allow. So, does it automatically switch like the native camera, or do I need to do something? Custom Camera vs Native Camera Custom Camera Native Camera The code was adapted from the Apple's project AVCamFilter. Just download the AVCamFilter and update videoDeviceDiscoverySession: private let videoDeviceDiscoverySession = AVCaptureDevice.DiscoverySession( deviceTypes: [.builtInTripleCamera], mediaType: .video, position: .unspecified )

I have an app that uses a MultiCamCaptureSession, the devices of which are builtInUltraWideCamera and builtInLiDARDepthCamera cameras. Occasionally when outside I get some frame drops due to discontinuity that end in the media services being reset: [06-24 11:27:13][CameraSession] Capture session runtime error: related decl 'e' for AVError(_nsError: Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11819 "Cannot Complete Action" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot Complete Action, NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Try again later.}) This runtime error notification is always superseded by 4-5 frame drops : [06-24 11:27:10][CaptureSession] Dropped frame because Discontinuity Logging the system temperature shows [06-24 11:27:10][CaptureSession] Temperature is 'Fair' I have some inclination that the frame discontinuity is being caused by the whileBalanceMode of the capture session, perhaps the algorithm requires 5 recent frames to work. I had a similar problem with the lidar depth camera where with filtering enabled exactly 5 frame drops would make the media services reset. When the whiteBalanceMode is locked I do slightly better with 10 frame drops before the mediaServices are reset. Is there any logging utility to determine the actual reason? All of these sampleBuffers come with no info attachment only the not so useful "Dropped frame because Discontinuity." Any ideas for solving this would be helpful as well. Maybe tuning the camera to work better with quickly varying lighting conditions?

My app has encountered many watchdog issues on iOS 17, with stack traces as follows: Attributed: Call stack 0: mach_msg2_trap (in libsystem_kernel.dylib) + 7 mach_msg2_internal (in libsystem_kernel.dylib) + 79 mach_msg_overwrite (in libsystem_kernel.dylib) + 435 mach_msg (in libsystem_kernel.dylib) + 23 _dispatch_mach_send_and_wait_for_reply (in libdispatch.dylib) + 543 dispatch_mach_send_with_result_and_wait_for_reply (in libdispatch.dylib) + 59 xpc_connection_send_message_with_reply_sync (in libxpc.dylib) + 263 FigXPCConnectionSendSyncMessageCreatingReply (in CoreMedia) + 291 FigXPCRemoteClientSendSyncMessageCreatingReply (in CoreMedia) + 47 FigCaptureSessionRemoteCreate (in CMCapture) + 131 -[AVCaptureSession _createFigCaptureSession] (in AVFCapture) + 123 -[AVCaptureSession _initWithMediaEnvironment:] (in AVFCapture) + 619 -[AVCaptureSession init] (in AVFCapture) + 415 We also have many iOS 16 users, but have never encountered a watchdog issue with the AVCaptureSession init method in iOS 16. Is there any change in iOS 17 that could have caused this? How can I avoid this issue? The complete stack trace is attached avfoundation-watchdog.txt
