Swift Merge audio and video files into one video

Question

I wrote a program in Swift.I want to merge a video with an audio file, but got this error.

\"failed Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11838 \

Answer 1

In Above question same error I found due to wrong savePathUrl, destination URL should be like below code including new video name.

I was looking for the code to Merge audio and video files into one video but couldn't find anywhere so after spending hours while reading apple docs I wrote this code.

NOTE : This is tested and 100% working code for me.

Stap : 1 Import this modules in your viewController.

import UIKit
import AVFoundation
import AVKit
import AssetsLibrary

step 2: Add this function in your code

func mergeFilesWithUrl(videoUrl:NSURL, audioUrl:NSURL)
{
    let mixComposition : AVMutableComposition = AVMutableComposition()
    var mutableCompositionVideoTrack : [AVMutableCompositionTrack] = []
    var mutableCompositionAudioTrack : [AVMutableCompositionTrack] = []
    let totalVideoCompositionInstruction : AVMutableVideoCompositionInstruction = AVMutableVideoCompositionInstruction()


    //start merge

    let aVideoAsset : AVAsset = AVAsset(URL: videoUrl)
    let aAudioAsset : AVAsset = AVAsset(URL: audioUrl)

    mutableCompositionVideoTrack.append(mixComposition.addMutableTrackWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeVideo, preferredTrackID: kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid))
    mutableCompositionAudioTrack.append( mixComposition.addMutableTrackWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeAudio, preferredTrackID: kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid))

    let aVideoAssetTrack : AVAssetTrack = aVideoAsset.tracksWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeVideo)[0]
    let aAudioAssetTrack : AVAssetTrack = aAudioAsset.tracksWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeAudio)[0]



    do{
        try mutableCompositionVideoTrack[0].insertTimeRange(CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, aVideoAssetTrack.timeRange.duration), ofTrack: aVideoAssetTrack, atTime: kCMTimeZero)

        //In my case my audio file is longer then video file so i took videoAsset duration
        //instead of audioAsset duration

        try mutableCompositionAudioTrack[0].insertTimeRange(CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, aVideoAssetTrack.timeRange.duration), ofTrack: aAudioAssetTrack, atTime: kCMTimeZero)

        //Use this instead above line if your audiofile and video file's playing durations are same

        //            try mutableCompositionAudioTrack[0].insertTimeRange(CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, aVideoAssetTrack.timeRange.duration), ofTrack: aAudioAssetTrack, atTime: kCMTimeZero)

    }catch{

    }

    totalVideoCompositionInstruction.timeRange = CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero,aVideoAssetTrack.timeRange.duration )

    let mutableVideoComposition : AVMutableVideoComposition = AVMutableVideoComposition()
    mutableVideoComposition.frameDuration = CMTimeMake(1, 30)

    mutableVideoComposition.renderSize = CGSizeMake(1280,720)

    //        playerItem = AVPlayerItem(asset: mixComposition)
    //        player = AVPlayer(playerItem: playerItem!)
    //
    //
    //        AVPlayerVC.player = player



    //find your video on this URl
    let savePathUrl : NSURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: NSHomeDirectory() + "/Documents/newVideo.mp4")

    let assetExport: AVAssetExportSession = AVAssetExportSession(asset: mixComposition, presetName: AVAssetExportPresetHighestQuality)!
    assetExport.outputFileType = AVFileTypeMPEG4
    assetExport.outputURL = savePathUrl
    assetExport.shouldOptimizeForNetworkUse = true

    assetExport.exportAsynchronouslyWithCompletionHandler { () -> Void in
        switch assetExport.status {

        case AVAssetExportSessionStatus.Completed:

            //Uncomment this if u want to store your video in asset

            //let assetsLib = ALAssetsLibrary()
            //assetsLib.writeVideoAtPathToSavedPhotosAlbum(savePathUrl, completionBlock: nil)

            print("success")
        case  AVAssetExportSessionStatus.Failed:
            print("failed \(assetExport.error)")
        case AVAssetExportSessionStatus.Cancelled:
            print("cancelled \(assetExport.error)")
        default:
            print("complete")
        }
    }


}

Step 3: Call function where u want like this

let videoUrl : NSURL =  NSURL(fileURLWithPath: NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("SampleVideo", ofType: "mp4")!)
let audioUrl : NSURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("SampleAudio", ofType: "mp3")!)

mergeFilesWithUrl(videoUrl, audioUrl: audioUrl)

hope this will help you and will save your time.
