I have this code in a very simple, single view Swift application in my ViewController : var audioPlayer = AVAudioPlayer() @IBAction func playMyFile(sender: AnyObject) { let fileString = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("audioFile", ofType: "m4a") let url = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: fileString) var error : NSError? audioPlayer = AVAudioPlayer(contentsOfURL: url, error: &error) audioPlayer.delegate = self audioPlayer.prepareToPlay() if (audioPlayer.isEqual(nil)) { println("There was an error: (er)") } else { audioPlayer.play() NSLog("working") } I have added import AVFoundation and audioPlayer

EDIT: The culprit was iOS 8, not the simulator (which I didn't realize was already running iOS 8) I've renamed the title to reflect this. I was happily using the code from this SO question to load album artwork from mp3 files. This was on my iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1. But then I traced crashing in the iOS simulator to this code. Further investigation revealed that this code also crashed on my iPad. It crashed on my iPad after upgrading it to iOS 8. It appears the dictionary containing the image is corrupted. I created a dummy iOS project that only loads album art and got the same result. Below is

So here's my problem. I am trying to create a screen in which there is a UIImageView and a UIButton. When the user presses the button, the camera app opens, you take a photo and if you press "Use Photo" in the Camera app, you are returned to my app's screen and the photo is placed in the UIImageView I mentioned previously. What happens so far is that when I press the "Use Photo" button, the image is correctly placed in my UIImageView but then the app crashes with the following error: This app has crashed because it attempted to access privacy-sensitive data without a usage description. The app

Simple question. How do I play multi channel audio files (>2 channels) using AVAudioEngine so that I can hear all channels on default 2-channel output (headphones/speaker). Following code (stripped of error checking for presenting) plays the file first two channels but I can only hear it when headphones are plugged in. AVAudioFile *file = [[AVAudioFile alloc] initForReading:[[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:@"nums6ch" withExtension:@"wav"] error:nil]; AVAudioEngine *engine = [[AVAudioEngine alloc] init]; AVAudioPlayerNode *player = [[AVAudioPlayerNode alloc] init]; AVAudioMixerNode *mixer

Is it possible to use HTTP Live Streaming with AVPlayer on iOS 4.0? This was clearly a documented feature of 4.0. However, if I run Apple's SitchedStreamPlayer sample code on my 3GS running iOS 4.0.1, clicking "Load Movie" does not play the stream, but gives an error: 2011-06-21 13:14:49.428 StitchedStreamPlayer[680:307] The asset's tracks were not loaded due to an error: Cannot Open MPMediaPlayer is able to play the same stream on the same device. However, I need a working solution with AVPlayer. Does anyone know how to get Apple's StichedStreamPlayer code to work on 4.0? The Runtime

I am developing an iPhone App. In that, there is a requirement for Pausing and resuming the camera. So i used AVFoundation for that instead of using UIImagePickerController . My code is : - (void) startup :(BOOL)isFrontCamera { if (_session == nil) { NSLog(@"Starting up server"); self.isCapturing = NO; self.isPaused = NO; _currentFile = 0; _discont = NO; // create capture device with video input _session = [[AVCaptureSession alloc] init]; AVCaptureDevice *cameraDevice = [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo]; if(isFrontCamera) { NSArray *videoDevices = [AVCaptureDevice

I have spent the whole day and went through a lot of SO answers, Apple references, documentations, etc, but no success. I want a simple thing: I am playing a video using AVPlayer and I want to pause it and get the current frame as UIImage . That's it. My video is a m3u8 file located on the internet, it is played normally in the AVPlayerLayer without any problems. What have I tried: AVAssetImageGenerator . It is not working, the method copyCGImageAtTime:actualTime: error: returns null image ref. According to the answer here AVAssetImageGenerator doesn't work for streaming videos. Taking

I was trying to get the camera input to show on a preview layer view. self.cameraPreviewView is tied to a UIView in IB Here is my current code that I put together from the AV Foundation Programming Guide. But the preview never shows AVCaptureSession *session = [[AVCaptureSession alloc] init]; session.sessionPreset = AVCaptureSessionPresetHigh; AVCaptureDevice *device = [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo]; NSError *error = nil; AVCaptureDeviceInput *input = [AVCaptureDeviceInput deviceInputWithDevice:device error:&error]; if (!input) { NSLog(@"Couldn't create video
